Our Mothers

I think it is a great film. Sure, for artistic virtues, acting, storytelling, atmosphere. But, more important, for to remind. Mary contemporary societies are defined by painful, old or recent scars. Many people are looking for the fair relation with their dark past. The film has the virtue to propose a way , a version, a confession, in the most honest way. Ant it did it in well manner. Half of work - the apparent physical androgenity of Armando Espitia, the faces of old ladies, the bones of the father as portrait of the past of Guatemala, the walk on the beach and, not the last , the fair clash between idealism and cruel, pragmatic reality. I saw it as a beautiful film in profound sense. Sure, the cinematography is great but Nuestros Madres is one of remarkable films for its...soul. Iou feel it, you seem be part of your memories scenes, words or gestures from it. And that does it real special. And, maybe, more than a film.
