Fernando Lavanderos’ latest project has earned critical acclaim in Czechoslovakia.

The 39-year-old Chilean filmmaker’s Las cosas como son has won the Independent Camera Award at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.

The 2012 Spanish-language drama/thriller centers on an antisocial man who rents rooms to foreigners and lives vicariously through them. But when a 23-year-old Nordic girl arrives one day and brings meaning to his life, he tries to woo her. But  just when he thinks he’s been successful at winning her love, he discovers that she’s hiding something, awakening his worst fears.

Las cosas como son had previously won the Latin American competition at the Mar del Plata International Film Festival.

During the film festival, John Travolta, Oliver Stone and Theodor Pištěk received the Crystal Globe Award for Outstanding Artistic Contribution to World Cinema.
