Everybody Loves Bárbara Mori

Mori described her character, Zoe, as “a victim of circumstance, and of her two brothers,” and added that she has evolved as an actress thanks to her nine year television career. For this particular role, Benjamín Cann, the film’s director, “brought out things in me I didn’t know I had,” she remarked.

Mori, who has acted in soap operas like Mirada de Mujer, commented that what first drew her to La mujer de mi hermano was the script: “The ending caught my attention, that’s why I accepted the role.” She added that she loved the experience of working in a film, and that she plans to retire from television for the time being: “They way you rehearse and prepare a character for a long time before you take it to the screen has me enthralled.”

Benjamín Cann said the film was screened in digital format because the 35mm copy wasn’t ready, as they finished filming five months ago: “Even though we used a 10,000 lumen projector for this screening, the film format will have a much better quality.”
