According to the synopsis provided by the production company, Alicia, now a young mother, returns to the creepy mansion that she ran away from as a little girl. Accompanied by her husband and their nine-year-old daughter, Nora, the woman is seeking to rebuild her life, but she is forced to face up to a past she thought was dead and buried, and a body that refuses to give in to death: that of Victoria, the possessive matriarch of the family. She has fallen into a deep coma and only survives by being connected to a life-support machine – but little Nora shows an unhealthy fascination with her. The Influence is a macabre tale about the burden of family ties and the transcendental nature of death.

and Eduardo Casanova. In Denis Rovira’s case, he also came with an incredible amount of technical know-how, as he has directed several adverts, and he brought along the film adaptation of a novel by a writer who’s always fascinated me.”

The Influence (no relation to Pedro Aguilera’s La influencia [+leggi anche:

, despite them sharing the same Spanish title) is a production by Nadie es perfecto. It sees the involvement of RTVE and is being made in conjunction with the Asturias Film Commission. It is being shot over a period of seven weeks in Madrid, San Rafael and Asturias, and its distribution and international sales will be handled by Sony Pictures Entertainment Iberia.
