About Congress in Seville
Carmen is a Spanish emigrant in Stockholm who does not have the money to run her business or buy a ticket back to Spain. Thanks to a misunderstanding she meets Dr. Petersen who has an invitation to a medical congress in Seville and does not plan to attend. Carmen uses the ticket and impersonates the doctor just enough time to get to the city, but then she will be forced to keep the lie.
Directed by Antonio Román, Congress in Seville leans on a strong ensemble — Carmen Sevilla, Fernando Fernán Gómez, Manolo Morán — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1955.
