Editor's Note
A drama teacher, Isabel (Veronica Forque), at a competitive acting school full of hormonal 19-year-olds with big dreams and their hearts on their sleeves, finds herself at a crossroads in life. Twenty years ago she was a struggling actress from a wealthy family. Now, settled into a successful and fulfilling--but much more humble--teaching career, she finds her love life unfulfilled. Her young lover entertains her affections, but he cannot appease her lonliness. When she coincidentally runs into Mario (Daniel Jiminez Camacho), a man with whom she shared a one-night stand in her youth, and finds that he is now a successful director, her heart leaps. NO SHAME concentrates primarily on the lives of the wonderfully energetic acting students, and weaves in Isabel's story carefully, always making sure to keep the students in the spotlight. A tale of love and risking everything in the name of dreams, the Joaquin Oristrell-directed film has a new-agey, bohemian flavor that breathes magical life into the beautiful sets and glowing cast.
