Overview

The acclaimed film director Esteban Martínez is a legend both for his films and for his past marked by violence and excess. For his new project, he offers his daughter Emilia a role under the pretext of helping her with her stalled acting career. Living together on set will foster a closeness they haven’t shared for years, but it will also reopen old wounds that never healed.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A slow-burn examination of a fractured father-daughter bond, tested when a domineering filmmaker casts his struggling actress daughter in his film. The film sits in the uncomfortable space between reconciliation and resentment, where proximity reopens more than it heals.
