ONE OF THE HOLLYWOOD TEN

Set in the 50’s, Hollywood’s most brilliant and glamorous years, the film tells the story of director Herbert Biberman (Jeff Goldblum) and his wife (Greta Scacchi), the acclaimed Oscar-winning actress Gale Sondergaard. ONE OF THE HOLLYWOOD TEN tells, in a thriller style, the moving inside story of the hardships encountered by a director to finish shooting “La Sal de la Tierra”, a film about the miners’ strikes in New Mexico’s Hispanic Community. This project becomes highly traumatic for the family, since Herbert decides not to give his wife Galesthe film’s leading role, as she does not match character’s profile. Sacrificing his family and his love relationship, he seeks in “La Sal de la Tierra”, the proof that he can still direct and that he is not a second-rate director, as some actors in the studios have insinuated. In the midst of a great tension, he manages to finish shooting the film.
