La estafa del amor, the third feature film by Virginia García del Pino (El jurado, Basilio Martín Patino. La décima carta), takes as its starting point the case of the ‘love swindler’, which serves as an excuse to deepen into the paradigm of romantic love. From a real workshop organized in Cineteca de Madrid, people of different creeds, sexual options and ways of thinking react to the reading of the script of a film about a guy who charmed women to swindle them.
Throughout this film-performance about love, some characters from the script burst into the room to explain the extraordinary (not necessarily positive) influence exerted by the ideal of romantic love. Produced by Pantalla Partida, Artefacto and Ferdydurke Films, La estafa del amor also reflects on the cinematographic fact, its capacity of influence and representation, the very need to make films and the way in which the media (cinema, TV, networks, etc.) configure and design in an extreme way our ways of loving, and its emotional, physical, social and political repercussions.
