Mar Coll (born 1981) is a Spanish screenwriter and film director. For her first feature, Three Days With The Family (2009), she won the Goya and Gaudí Awards for Best Director. For her second film, We All Want What’s Best for Her (2013), she received nominations for Best Director and Best Screenplay at the Gaudí Awards. She has also directed the limited series Killing the Father (2018) and This Is Not Sweden (2023). Salve Maria is her long-awaited return to cinema.
Maria, a promising young writer and new mother, stumbles upon a chilling headline: a French woman has drowned her 10-month-old twins in the bathtub. The gruesome act seizes Maria's imagination, becoming an obsession. Why did she do it? From that moment onwards, the specter of infanticide looms over Maria's life as a haunting possibility.
