 Vega is not an ordinary artist. Her recent nomination for the Latin Grammy in the category of Best Pop/Rock Album is undoubtedly recognition for a great album, but also for a great artist. “La Cuenta Atrás” (Sony Music), produced by Sebastian Krys, a renowned producer, “is an optimistic record” according to Vega, “this is the record I had to make; this nomination is definitely encouraging and reaffirming and keeps me working in the same direction”. For this record, Vega has had the collaboration of exceptional musicians such as Abe Laboriel Jr., David Levita, Chris Chaney and Robert J. Manning Jr.

 A musical genre often times describes an artist’s personality, but in Vega’s case definitions don’t apply. She was born in Cordoba, Spain, as Mercedes Migel Carpio, and graduated from her career in advertising and public relations. Vega has a great passion: music who is a performer and songwriter of her own songs. She is actively involved in all aspects of her career: writing songs, and producing music and videos, where she is always involved in writing the screenplay as well as acting.

From British filmmaker Andrea Arnold, Wuthering Heights is an epic love story spanning childhood well into the young adult years, the film follows Heathcliff (in Arnold’s version, a black boy), who is taken in by a Yorkshire farmer, Earnshaw. Living in Earnshaw’s home on the windswept moors, Heathcliff develops a passionate relationship with the farmer’s teenage daughter, Cathy, inspiring the envy and mistrust of his son, Hindley.  When Earnshaw passes away, the now-grown characters must finally confront the intense feelings and rivalries that have built up throughout their years together.

Under all the characters’ moods, for those pictures of the passions that he may desire to sketch for our public benefit this movie is really exhilarating in many aspects. For instance, there are facts such as racial discrimination, rather than that of class is the key factor in Arnold’s story, with Heathcliff portrayed as black of African descent. However, love with savage romance is the main ingredient in this story. It is highly recommended for those who love tragedy, romance and pain in love!

Precocious 12-year-old Simon lives with his wild and irresponsible older sister in a small apartment below a luxurious ski resort nestled in the Swiss Alps. Each day, Simon ascends the lofty mountain above, pilfering ski equipment from the rich and selling it to get by. Left unsupervised, his newfound criminal enterprise and growing attachment to the seasonal workers and guests sends his precarious relationship with his sister spiraling out of control.

 A stunning meditation on secrets, lies and moral obligation, Ursula Meier’s compassionate character study of a boy forced to grow up too fast is a movie for the ages. the surface over the 97 minute running time and they are the kind of secret hopes and desires that could – and probably do – change both character lives forever. Simon lives in the valley with his flighty, immature elder sister (Léa Seydoux), struggling to make ends meet. But in the winter he becomes a mountain kid and, disguised as a youthful ski bum, steals whatever comes to hand. All the life responsibilities are on him and a whole society ignores him so this is part of our reality that we should not ignore and this movie deserves two thumbs up!
