It's on Prime Video and was Verónica Echegui's last film: she shot it with Ángela Molina and it's a must-see.

The news of Verónica Echegui 's death at the age of 42 has shaken Spanish cinema. The Madrid-born actress, renowned for her acting prowess and ability to transform each role into a unique challenge, had built a solid career since her breakthrough in Yo soy la Juani (2006). With several Goya Award nominations, international work , and a Goya-winning directorial debut for Tótem loba, Echegui established herself as one of the most beloved performers of her generation.

Among his latest projects is a film that can now be seen on Prime Video, where he shares the lead role with a legend of our cinema: Ángela Molina. The film is Yo no soy esa (2024) , a romantic comedy with fantasy overtones directed by María Ripoll. The plot revolves around Susana, played by Echegui, a teenager who suffers an accident in the 1990s and falls into a coma.

Two decades later, she wakes up in 2024, trapped in the body of an adult woman, but with the mind of that young woman who had been suspended. The clash between her inner world and a reality dominated by technology, social changes, and the loss of past time forms the dramatic axis of a story that combines tenderness, humor, and reflection.

The film brought together an ensemble cast that connects different generations of actors. Echegui's leading role is played by Ángela Molina, one of Spain's most internationally renowned actresses, whose career in both arthouse and commercial productions has made her a leading figure. Joining them are Daniel Grao, Silma López, Adam Jezierski, Anna Alarcón, and Olivia Molina, all of whom bring nuances to a story that explores identity and the difficulty of rediscovering oneself after the passage of time.

The presence of two powerful names like Echegui and Molina became one of the film's greatest draws. The chemistry between the two lends poignancy to the narrative, underscoring the intimate dimension of a story about second chances and the need to adapt to a present that sometimes feels alien.

That's No Soy is the result of a collaboration between El Estudio and Cahuenga Filmmakers, along with Sony Pictures International Productions, RTVE, and Prime Video. It's also part of The Love Collection, a Sony initiative dedicated to romantic comedies created by women, reinforcing its pioneering role in a genre seeking new voices and perspectives.

Filming took place in Barcelona during the spring of 2023, turning the city into a backdrop for the blend of past and present that runs throughout the film. Now, its arrival on Prime Video also ensures global distribution, aligning with the trend of Spanish productions reaching an international market that is increasingly receptive to our stories.
