Mudar la piel (The Spy Within) will be screened in the non-competitive Official Selection of the 71st edition of the Locarno Festival in August 2018. Produced by Señor y Señora and Labyrinthus PC, the film tells the story of a friendship between a mediator for peace between ETA and the Spanish government, and an ETA-infiltrated spy from the secret services. A friendship overcame betrayal and endures; a friendship that raises a number of questions. A chronicle of the filmmakers' own relationship with the spy and the challenge of capturing their elusive identity.
