Nathalie Poza and Eduard Fernández, in ‘El Hormiguero’: “We do not judge our characters, we understand them”

Eduard Fernandez and Nathalie Poza visited this Wednesday The Anthill to present Framehis new film that hits theaters on November 8.

The film tells the story of Enric Marco Batllewho for years made the entire society believe that he was a survivor of a Nazi concentration camp.

“Marco was a Catalan who was a survivor and leader of the association of deportees from the concentration camps. Until one day, a journalist, thought that the story did not fit him and began to investigate. The film is the chase between Enric and the journalist to dismantle or maintain the farce,” explained the actor.

Poza explained that her character “is the wife of Enric Marco, a woman who kept the secret from him all her life. The film is a thriller that makes you wonder many thingsask yourself how long you will be able to maintain the story.

“It is difficult to imagine what kind of person can concoct that fantasy and what he gets in return,” Motos said. “There are many contradictions in the character of Enric Marco, it is a person with a brutal inner emptiness that nothing can fill“Fernandez commented.

“He didn’t get a penny out of this whole story, just attention. Of course, he was the one who spoke best of all the prisoners in the concentration camps, but because he was not there,” he added.

While his partner wanted to comment that “He had had a very complicated childhood and what he was looking for was attention”.

The presenter pointed out that “Marco, despite his lies, gave voice to concentration camp survivorsDo you think that deep down we have to thank him or is it unforgivable?”

The actress stated that “Our job is not to judge our characters, but to try to understand them and see the world through their eyes.. “I think the person he did the most damage to is himself; living with that continuous lie must be exhausting.”

Motos also wanted to highlight the characterization of Fernández, who explained: “I gained 16 kilos, I characterized myself completely, I became an old man“.

“Can you let go of the characters well after playing them?” the host of the Antena 3 program asked them. The actor commented that “it depends. With this character in particular, I’m having a hard time, I’m a little hooked.. “I went very crazy when I was preparing it, but in a very playful way.”
