Para Elisa (which translates into For Elisa) is a 2013 thriller film directed and written by Juanra Fernández.[1] The film stars Ona Casamiquela as a college student that accepts a job from a wealthy former piano player that wants a caretaker for her mentally challenged daughter. The film's name is a take on the Beethoven composition Für Elise.

Filming for Para Elisa took place during August 2012 in Cuenca, Spain.[2][3] In an article for ABC Fernández noted that it was difficult to film in the region, as the region did not have a pre-existing film industry.[4]
