Trail of Ashes (2020) is an American and Puerto Rican production that merges epics with fantasy and ancient myths and characters.
The search for the empress’s daughter reunites two long lost brothers who grew up on opposite sides of a war and now must choose between family bonds and political alliances.
The movie is the directional debut in a feature film for Arturo Lizardi. The idea of the story was originally conceived as a book, but after a few chapters into it, he decided to turn it into a screenplay instead. Samari Vega also took part in the writing of the screenplay. The two already worked before being producers of awards-winner science-fiction short film Lunas Rojas (2016), and are also producers of Trail of Ashes (2020).
The main cast for the movie is formed by Héctor Escudero, Cecilia Arguelles, Jasmin Sanabria, Migdalia Rosario, Carlos Miranda, Astrid Lizardi, Ian Daryk, and writer-director Arturo Lizardi in the role of Silas / Ran.
Trail of Ashes (2020) is scheduled for a release on the 1st of December 2020. Here you can watch its trailer.
