Biography
Elle a suivi des études de philosophie et d'Arts Scéniques pendant qu'elle jouait ses premiers rôles. Elle a débuté devant la caméra en interprétant Grete, la sœur du protagoniste de La Métamorphose de Franz Kafka en 1994, et depuis lors sa carrière comporte surtout des rôles de personnages obscurs dans des films d'horreur et de science-fiction. Après son rôle de protagoniste dans Reportatge del Monument de Sonilles, un épisode de la série télévisée Cròniques de la veritat oculta, une production de la Télévision de la Catalogne basée sur des contes fantastiques de Pere Calders, et quelques courts-métrages, elle est partie en Argentine où elle a fait une parenthèse de quelques années dans sa carrière d'actrice. Après son retour en Espagne, elle a renoué avec son activité théâtrale, dans le cinéma commercial sous la direction de Paco Plaza et dans le cinéma indépendant avec Carlos Atanes.Usually with

After a brief introduction by Arantxa Peña (usual actress in "atanic" films who locates us into the "atanic" universe), we can see three stories: Metaminds & Metabodies (1995), a crazy and very violent tale about how a sick drunkard meets a lascivious succubus into a hideous tavern's mirror; Morfing (1996), an Atanes' grotesque trip through independent cinema's sewers; and Welcome to Spain (1999), a bloody and lustful nightmare where some people fight for an absurdity: to go up the stairs.

Tony (Oriol Aubets) runs a small science fiction video store bordering on bankruptcy; his relationship with Natalia (Karen Owens) is getting worse as time goes by, because their interests have diverged. One day, Tony goes to a science fiction convention where a well-known writer Félix Cadecq's (Manuel Solàs) comes to give a chat on his latest work. When he starts his speech, the writer makes a surprising declaration: it's worthless to keep writing science fiction novels, because he has found a new portal; a real and simple way to reach the stars. "Listen to my new CD-book and try it yourself", he proclaims. This announcement is not well received among his estranged fans; but Tony, touched by curiosity, buys Cadecq's CD in order to test what he said.

The story takes place in 1851 and deals with a small Spanish village apparently plagued by what we would now call a serial killer, as corpses are discovered bearing both savage mutilation and precise surgical incisions. Clues point toward Manuel Romasanta (Julian Sands), who confesses to the crimes, but claims that he is a victim of lycanthropy. A scientist, Professor Philips (David Gant), argues that Romasanta suffers not from a supernatural curse but from a mental disorder.
