Breaking: Sergi López on Winning the Jury Award and the Spiritual Journey of Syrup
The traffic on Madrid’s Gran Vía may be a far cry from the desert landscapes captured in Syrup, the latest film by director Laxe Óliver, but actor Sergi López has found himself deeply immersed in the spiritual journey reflected on screen. López recently took home the jury award at Cannes for his role in the movie, which has stirred praise for its sensory experience and profound impact.
Unraveling the Complexities of Syrup
Syrup, starring Sergi López as Luis, a father searching for his daughter across the deserts of Morocco, is not just a physical journey but a deeply spiritual one. López, who played Luis, sat down with El HuffPost to discuss the movie whose visuals and soundtrack have captured audiences through unforgettable impressions.
“It’s a chill down your spine,” Sergi López shared about reading the script. “You don’t know where you’re going, you don’t know what to compare it to. When things are well written, even if it’s a thriller or a romantic comedy, you can often tell where you’re headed. But not this movie. It’s a sensory adventure that keeps unfolding and shifting.”
The Authenticity of Non-Actors in the Cast
While Sergi López brings his acting prowess to the film, many of the participants were non-actors. “I connect easily with people,” López said. “The ravers in the film are not drugged all day; they have an awareness about ecological and feminist issues.

Discovering Meaning in the Journey
The unexpected nature of Syrup was a revelation for Sergi López. “In the script, you don’t see the images, but you intuit them – desert, trucks, sandstorms,” he explained. “You think, ‘Where are these two guys going?’ Then you realize the movie is not just about Luis and his son, but about their collective journey. I read the script and I loved it, but I told Óliver, ‘The most painful, explicit part of this man, I think I can’t do it. I don’t know how to tackle it.’ It’s such an extreme request.”
