Holly Jones Spanish actors Joana and Mireia Vilapuig, who rose to fame with Spanish television phenomenon “The Red Band Society,” star in the drama series “Selftape,” which they co-wrote with Ivan Mercadé, Carlos Robisco and Clara Esparrach.
The show plays at Series Mania this week ahead of its bow on the Spanish VOD platform Filmin on April 4. The Vilapuig sisters spoke to Variety about the dark side of adolescent acting, and their experiences as young women working in showbiz. “Selftape’s” story is based on their experiences as young stars, documenting their struggles after unforeseen circumstances bring them back together, wading through the trauma created by early fame.
With authentic clips from old audition tapes and a slow-burn plot that escalates as the past unfurls, audiences can expect themes of competition, regret, longing and disillusion to emerge through each of the show’s six episodes.
Bàrbara Farré directs the project, which was produced by Filmax, Mercadé and the Vilapuig sisters, as well as Pau Freixas, Carlos Fernández and Laura Fernández Brites, in conjunction with Spanish public broadcaster RTVE, and the support of the Institut Català de les Empreses Culturals (ICEC). It seems nearly impossible to spend your life portraying others and continue independently without being shaped by these roles in some way.
