This August 27th comes Victoria, a series directed by Leo Damario and that has a cast full of figures. In addition, this story was created in the midst of the strict quarantine during 2020, so it was conceived as the first “lockdown fiction” made in Argentina presenting itself as a new format of fiction series with marked comic aesthetics, scenes filmed remotely, actors working in separate spaces, and the director performing all the technical areas.
Victoria follows the story of a woman who developed her own experimental and clandestine device. Consulted by other women victims of gender violence, she implements a “treatment” that she carries out through an extreme web therapy in which she confronts the victim with the perpetrator, whom she holds hostage until “the case” is resolved.
In addition Victoria has her own past as a victim of abuse and when trying to report the facts she was silenced, and interned in a psychiatrist, from which she manages to escape and hide her identity, until a distant acquaintance of the past begins to track her down.
For its director, Leo Damario “Victoria is a series led by women where I followed them with my camera. From the artistic production of Gisela Asmundo, to the script of Nora Mazitelli and Cecilia Peckaitis as the muse who inspired the whole project and stars in the series”.
This production also has a choral cast that stars Cecilia Peckaitis, Benjamín Vicuña, Rafael Spregelburd, Favio Posca, Inés Estévez, Muriel Santa Ana, Flor Torrente, Emilia Attias, Carlos Belloso, Federico D Elia, Bimbo, Turco Naim, Natalie Pérez, Delfina Chávez, Marcelo D Andrea, Fabiana García Lagos, Fermín Varangot, Leo Damario, Martin Coggi, Amanda Rubi Damario and the special participation of Andrés Calamaro.I watched the trailer here
