Legendary filmmaker Víctor Erice returns, 30 years after his Cannes prize-winning Dream of Light.
Nominated for Best Film and Best Actor at Forqué Awards.
Close Your Eyes turns on a famous Spanish actor, Julio Arenas, who disappears while filming a movie. Although his body is never found, the police conclude that he has suffered an accident at a cliff by the sea. Many years later, the mystery is brought up once more by a TV program that tries to evoke the actor, offering as a scoop images of the last scenes in which he participated, shot by his close friend, director Miguel Garay.
