José María Texeira Guerrero (Mérida 1982) studied audiovisual arts in Madrid. In his first 2 years there he worked in small roles in television series and in more than twenty ad spots, while he gave shape to his first feature film script, “León” (2011), which he co-produced and acted in. It won the award for best Spanish film in the NIAFFS.
In 2015 he wrote, produced and directed “Ligones”, a movie that opened in commercial theaters in Spain in 2017, after a circuit of international film festivals.
In 2020 he writes the script for his third feature film, “A Normal Day”, a story of psychological suspense that he shot in 2021 and finished post-production in 2023.
Each year, thousands of films around the world feed content to numerous platforms for mass consumption. The way of viewing them has evolved from commercial movie theaters to televisions, computers, tablets and mobile phones. Today we consume more movies than at any other time of history.
Therefore, it is necessary contribute content with a distinctive tone.
This is how A Normal Day was born. Most of the film is shot in one location, in the living room of a rural house, where the protagonists, five friends, go to spend a nice weekend. Tell the story in practically one space, without losing dynamism, it was a real challenge.
We made more than 300 different plans in that room. The idea of A Normal Day is founded on the need to contribute a different story, with twists unexpected. It drives the public to the uncertainty that leads them to unknown, in the dark night, in a house, on a mountain of Extremadura.
