My Take
Laia Costa won me over with Victoria, that breathless single-take thriller through nighttime Berlin; carrying a film with no cuts is an act of sheer nerve. A Catalan from Barcelona, she's been honored across borders, from the German Film Award to the Goya and two Platino Awards, which speaks to a rare adaptability. What I admire is her appetite for risk and her refusal to stay inside the Spanish-language box, throwing herself into wildly different productions. To me the awards matter less than the range and courage behind them. I expect she'll keep surprising audiences with roles no one sees coming.
