MADRID -- Spanish sales agent Sogepaq said Wednesday it will handle worldwide sales for the Argentine-Spanish production Roma, directed by Adolfo Aristarain and slotted for the main competition at the San Sebastian International Film Festival. Roma deals with the subject of memory and lost ideals with the past 50 years of Argentine history as a backdrop. A writer confronts his past and rediscovers the memories of his mother, Roma, and her staunch support of his youthful ideals. Aristarain co-produced the film, which stars Juan Diego Botto, Jose Sacristan and Susu Pecoraro, with Spain's Tesela production house. Alta Films will release it theatrically in Spain in October.
