Michelle Jenner and Mario Casas have signed to star in Olga Osorio’s feature adaptation of Elia Barceló’s acclaimed novel The Goldsmith’s Secret.
Film Factory is introducing the film to Cannes buyers.
Adrián Guerra and Nuria Valls are producing for Nostromo Pictures, whose credits include the upcoming Rodrigo Cortés title Escape, exec-produced by Martin Scorsese.
The Goldsmith’s Secret will shoot in June in Alava and Barcelona. It is a love story set across three moments of the 20th Century. “It is inspired by classics such as Somewhere In Time and In the Mood for Love,” said Guerra.

[Editor's note: If anyone says 2010 was a sh!% year for movies, please refer them to this post.]
Instead of the usual "best" or "worst" films of the year lists, I thought a good way to take a look at the highs and lows of the 2010 film year would be to compile almost every single review we published in 2010 and let readers meander through the wasteland as it were.
I'm really amazed at the range of films we managed to cover from around the globe this year. Quiet Earth has certainly come a long way over the years and it's really due to the talents and passion of our team of writers who literally travel a world of fests to bring news and reviews of new films.
I hope you're all taking notes. Many of these films were from fests and will probably be hitting VOD and Blu-ray sometime in the new year, so this is a good chance to get a start on your must-watch lists.

Year: 2010
Director: Damir Lukacevic
Writers: Elia Barceló, Gabi Blauert, Damir Lukacevic
IMDb: link
Trailer: Na
Review by: Marina Antunes
Rating: 8 out of 10
[Editor's Note: Also be sure to read rochefort's review of the film from Fantastic Fest.]
Based on a story from award winning sci-fi author Elia Barceló, Transfer is director Damir Lukacevic’s first foray into the world of genre film making but aside from a few scenes peppered through out the film and the general concept, this isn’t so much a sci-fi film as a drama of what makes people individuals and a film which forces us to question the morality and benefits of the use of certain technologies.
Taking place in the near future, Lukacevic’s film works off of the concept that advances in technology have rendered death unnecessary. For those few rich enough to afford it (and willing), there’s an option to have their conscious transferred but not to a machine or a robot but into another human being.

Rating: 2/5
Writers: Elia Barceló (story), Gabi Blauert (screenplay), Damir Lukacevic (writer)
Director: Damir Lukacevic
Cast: B.J. Britt, Regine Nehy, Ingrid Andree, Hans-Michael Rehberg, Mehmet Kurtulus
Death is inevitable for us all. While some would like to live forever, some prefer to go when it’s their time. Those are the only two philosophies people have when it comes to death, mostly because there are simply no other options. Transfer, however, asks the question, “what if there were a way to prolong life?” It’s an extremely intriguing idea, and one that started out with boatloads of promise, but never executed the story to its merit.
