One Way stars the talented actress Daniela Alvarado and is directed by Carlos Daniel Malavé. The film exposes the harsh reality of many Latin American countries that drives many to emigrate in the midst of difficult social and economic conditions.



Daniela Alvarado represents Emiliana, a mother and university professor who is going through a difficult moment in her life when her son Santiago suffers an accident in a nation where the health system is precarious. Depression wins her day by day and she doesn't want to continue. At this moment she receives great support from a man she met on the street, Daniel (José Manuel Suárez) and begins to feel great appreciation for him. However, the situation with her son and the crisis in Venezuela make her make the decision to embark on a new life outside the country and rebuild her life despite the fact that she must move away from Daniel.

The Goyas award the best productions from Spain and Spanish-speaking countries and can be considered equivalent to the Oscar in the film industry.

Luis Villanueva, President and CEO of SOMOS Group and SOMOS Films declared: “This nomination of One Way as representative of Venezuela at the Goya Awards is a source of pride for us. One Way is the second SOMOS Films project to represent a Latin American country, since Muerte en Berruecos previously did it for Ecuador. This is an example of the quality cinema that we are producing and we congratulate Carlos Malavé and Daniela Alvarado for a spectacular job in a film that represents the drama that many of our countries are experiencing. This nomination commits us even more to producing films that present the best of our stories and our talent.”
