Jaume Roures Announces Fiction Film on Carlos Mazón’s DANA Management

The producer says the movie will critique public administration rather than dramatize the 229 deaths.

Overview

  • Roures disclosed the project on El món a RAC1, confirming that Jordi Galceran will write the screenplay.
  • He said no director or lead actor has been chosen and indicated the protagonist will be younger than Eduard Fernández.
  • The story focuses on Mazón’s handling of the October 29 DANA that left 229 people dead in the province of Valencia.
  • Roures described the film’s aim as exposing opportunistic and underqualified leadership, citing failures in breast cancer screening in Andalusia, wildfire management, and references to Esperanza Aguirre.
  • He pointed to a Mazón campaign spot featuring a storm as emblematic of the narrative he intends to examine.
