Quién te cantará
A super fan of a popular singer's best case scenario is to meet their hero and be acknowledged by them, perhaps getting a backstage pass attached to their ticket to a show. Quién te Cantará flips the fan-superstar-relationship on its head: The famous singer has to reach out to her biggest fan for help.§Quién te Cantará is an original take on the ultra fans' relationship with their idol. At one point during practice, Lila asks Violeta if she had thought of this moment alone with her in her house before and if how she imagined it going. The answer pales in comparison to what actually occurs on screen. (Francis McKay, Flickhunter)
