About Margarita
Margarita tells the story of Rafo (Giovanni Ciccia) who is a divorced parent in his forties that lives the life of a twenty-year old bachelor. Until his adorable, determined and tween daughter, Margarita (Francisca Aronsson), knocks on his door to move in his house without notice. Rafo's life will take a chaotic and fun turn in which he will find himself and other people like Claudia (Melania Urbina), his neighbor. Margarita, with her kindness and youth, will change Rafo's life and everyone around her forever.
Directed by Frank Pérez-Garland, Margarita leans on a strong ensemble — Francisca Aronsson, Giovanni Ciccia, Melania Urbina — 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 screen titles of 2016.
