Strong Emma Watson goes to extremes

EMMA WATSON has admitted she felt daunted by the extreme subject matter in her new film, political thriller Colonia Dignidad, but she couldn’t say no to such a strong female role.

The 24-year-old Harry Potter actress stars opposite Rush’s DANIEL BRUHL in the new movie, based on true events that took place during the Chilean military coup of 1973.

Emma’s character Lena follows her lover, played by Daniel, to a cult called Colonia Dignidad, where General Augusto Pinochet’s secret police sent prisoners to be tortured.
