Why watch this film?
'Mother' is a French-Spanish co-production, a beautiful and melancholic drama with touches of suspense. The film received multiple nominations in Europe, including at the Spanish Goya Awards and the Venice Film Festival. The story is about a mother separated from her son when he was young. Years later, a young man appears in her life, and she can't help but see the similarities to her lost son. It's a contemplative, touching and painful drama to watch and be left desolate. A beautiful example of a European drama, with an intense charge but not too appealing or too sweet. After all, a dense feature that sticks in your head for a long time after the movie ends.

The Beasts
The Beasts (As Bestas), by Spanish filmmaker Rodrigo Sorogoyen, is a film based on the premise that the everyday struggles of some are a privilege for others. The plot follows a couple of French expatriates who settle in Galicia to lead a dream life in the countryside. This does not sit well with the locals, and tensions with the neighbors soon reach a point of no return. It's a powerful story that leaves the audience disturbed and reflective long after the credits, weaving a complex social background for its characters. The film was highly awarded at international festivals and competitions, winning, among others, the Goya for Best Film and Best Director, as well as the César.

Como el mar
Como el mar is an Argentine film where a young woman, Azul (Zoe Hochbaum), discovers that her supposed older sister (Sofía Gala Castiglione) is actually her biological mother, and the mother who has just died was really her grandmother. Seeking answers about her father, they embark on a journey to Uruguay, where they must transform their bond. This road movie moves at a slow, contemplative pace, focusing more on exploring feelings than events, which may seem too simplistic for those looking for complex dramas. However, it's an emotional film, and the performance of the legendary Carmen Maura (Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown) is definitely worth watching.

My First Film
Many filmmakers spend their lives trying to sustain their creative careers, unaware of their missteps. In My First Film, the debut feature of director Zia Anger (who has created videos for artists like Mitski and Beach House), we see the opposite: a filmmaker who looks back and reconstructs what went wrong in her disastrous first attempt when she was younger. Past and present blend with reality and fiction (featuring artists like Odessa Young), in a film that recreates not just events but emotions. There are many meta and revisionist films, but My First Film is the most fascinating since 2018's Shirkers, at the very least.
