Paco Plaza, director of the Spanish horror film “La Abuela” , remembers distinctly how Coco Chanel’s favorite model,, who co-stars in his latest film, responded before boarding a plane to Paris to sit out the pandemic when their production shut down early last year: “I will stay alive.”

“In March we had to cancel the shoot. Vera had to leave. We didn’t know if we could do it. Vera before she left for Paris said, ‘I will stay alive.’ We called her to make sure she was still there,” he recalled.“We were really fearful throughout the process because we were fighting something we didn’t know,” he said. “We sent her to an apartment in Paris because we thought it would be better but it was one of the countries most affected by the pandemic.

Instead of sending her to a care home, she chooses to look after her at her home, whilst looking for a caregiver, so she can return to further her career in the French capital. “It will be a surprise to see it. It’s going to kill me because I will be frightened to death. The audience is the most important thing to me,” she added.
