Synopsis

'Anatema' tells the story of Juana, a strong-willed nun whose life has been marked by a paranormal experience. The Archdiocese gives her a mysterious task that will lead her to an ancient church in old Madrid. This church was built over a network of passageways whose origin is unknown. Once there, Juana will discover that deep within the building lies something that predates the legends that circulate and are explained about that place. Now, the evil that dwells there has begun to infect the outside world.

With the help of the young priest Ángel, the novice Mara, and the exorcist Cuiña, Juana descends into the catacombs of one of the oldest churches in Madrid to fulfill the archbishop's task of finding the Seal of Saint Simeon, placed there by the hermit saint himself to protect the world from an ancestral evil. In her adventure, she will confront the supernatural but also her own past.

This is the third film from The Fear Collection label. It falls within the genre of supernatural gothic horror, and the story is set in present-day Madrid. The original screenplay is by Jimina Sabadú and Elio Quiroga. The cast includes Leonor Watling, Pablo Derqui, Jaime Ordóñez, Keren Hapuc, Mauro Brussolo-Arocena, Mariano Llorente, Manuel de Blas, Xoán Fórneas, and Freda Lorente. It also features special collaborations from Juan Codina, Margarita Lascoiti, and Juan Manuel Montilla 'El Langui'. The filming took place in various locations in Madrid, Guadalajara, and Bizkaia.
