Irati

Everything has already been seen, but, strangely, "Irati" still seems a fresh take on the dark fantasy epic tale.

The film is based on Basque mythology and folklore, exploring themes like religion, necessary adaptation for survival, and even a additional message on the end. I watched it with Basque audio, and it was a captivating combination of the rhythm of the words and pictures.

In some scenes you can see feel the relative low budget, but overall it was hidden well.

I am very glad that I jumped in without knowing anything about the movie.

The actors are almost all very good, and the female lead, Edurne Azkarate, is fantastic.

What a beautiful ride!
