A Spanish police officer’s life is about to turn upside down as she infiltrates a dangerous lion’s den in the exclusive new teaser trailer for Arantxa Echevarría’s upcoming crime thriller “Undercover.” The film arrives in Spanish cinemas on Oct. 11 courtesy of Beta Fiction Spain.
“Undercover” is based on the real-life story of Aranzazu Berradre Marín, the pseudonym for the only police officer in Spanish history to infiltrate the terrorist organisation Eta successfully. The Basque nationalist separatist group killed over 829 people between 1968 and 2010 and injured over 22,000 until its dissolution in 2018.
The film, written by Echevarría and Amèlia Mora, takes place over the eight-year period when Marín was infiltrated and focuses on the mind-shattering fear of discovery that permeated her days during the mission.
The Goya-winning “Carmen and Lola” director reunites with Carolina Yuste, who stars as the undercover agent and plays alongside three-time Goya-winning actor Luis Tosar.

This is exactly the point of this brand new festival created under the guidance of the Sitges Film Fest folk. The winner walks away is with 30.000€ and so his/her trailer has the opportunity to take the shape of an actual short film.

Among the jury we find the influential figures of the Spanish cinema in: director Jaume Balagueró (Rec) and film critics Jaume Figueres and Mirito Torreiro. There are only 4 trailers remaining in the competition and every week one of them is eliminated via a popularity vote on the fest's website. You can go ahead and vote for your favorite at www.
