🔍 Search on JustWatch →Quiet, contemplative cinema — the kind where silence says more than dialogue. The director trusts the viewer and doesn't explain everything. That's rare.
The slow rhythm may tire those waiting for events. But for those willing to sink in, the film pulls hard. It's cinema for a second viewing.
Good for thoughtful solo viewing. Not for a group that wants background noise.
Director: Eva Longoria
