RETURNING HOME IS NOT ALWAYS A CHOICE.

After an encounter that changes the course of her life, Paula returns to Udra and is forced to reconnect with the place she once left behind.

]
A LOVE LETTER TO GALICIA, TOLD THROUGH THRILLER.

UDRA was born from a desire to explore the tension between modern life and the natural world. Through the language of thriller, horror and drama, the film reflects on identity, disconnection, guilt and the impossibility of escaping one's roots.

At its heart, UDRA is also a tribute to Galicia its landscapes, traditions and rural memory and to the places that quietly define who we become.
