María and Susana are teenage friends who spend their summers at a Catholic camp in Segovia run by nuns. The two love electronic and Latin dance music, and they regularly slip out at night to nearby clubs, dodging the watchful eyes of the sisters in charge. When María begins having visions, the experience pushes both young women toward a new way of seeing themselves, their faith, and their friendship. The story unfolds as a musical comedy, with songs woven into the characters' search for freedom and identity.
La Llamada was released in Spain in 2017 and runs 109 minutes. It is the feature directing debut of Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo, who also wrote the screenplay and later directed La bola negra together. Macarena García and Anna Castillo lead the cast as María and Susana, with Belén Cuesta, Gracia Olayo, Richard Collins-Moore and María Isabel Díaz Lago among the principal players. The production involved 37 credited cast members and 49 credited crew, with Enrique López Lavigne, José Corbacho and Kike Maíllo producing.
Made for about 3 million dollars, the film took in a similar amount worldwide, so it drew a modest theatrical audience relative to its cost. On IMDb it holds 6.2 out of 10 from roughly 4,900 votes, while on TMDB it rates 6.8 out of 10 from around 369 votes. Audience response has therefore been mildly favorable, with the smaller TMDB sample somewhat warmer than the larger IMDb group.
