Los Montes

1982 · 35 min

Quiet, patient, and quietly haunting, like watching real lives unfold in a fading place.

How it feels: Melancholic, earnest and bleak. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Isolation, survival, aging, death
Content: Mild violence and gore. No sexual content or swearing.
