Universal Pictures International Spain will distribute Fernando León de Aranoa's new film in Spain, A Perfect Day. The film is produced by Reposado and Mediapro, and has the participation of TVE, TV3, Canal+, Telecable and Orange. The Westend Films company will be responsible for international sales. Its premiere will be in 2015.

Fernando León de Aranoa's most internationally oriented project stars Oscar winner Benicio del Toro (Traffic) y Tim Robbins (Mystic River), and by actresses Olga Kurylenko (Oblivion) y Mélanie Thierry (The Zero Theorem). Completing the cast are Fedja Stukan (In the land of blood and honey) and the child Eldar Residovic.

Sophie (Mélanie Thierry) wants to help people, Mambrú (Benicio del Toro) wants to return home, Katya (Olga Kurylenko) once loved Mambrú. Damir (Fedja Stukan) wants the war to end, Nikola (Eldar Residevic) wants a ball, B (Tim Robbins) doesn't know what he wants. But what you want rarely coincides with what you need.

A group of aid workers tries to remove a body from a well in a conflict zone. Someone has thrown it inside to corrupt the water and leave nearby towns without supply. But the simplest task here becomes an impossible mission, in which the real enemy may be irrationality. The aid workers travel through the delirious war landscape trying to resolve the situation, like guinea pigs in a maze.

Humor, drama, tenderness, routine, danger, hope: everything fits into a perfect day.
