The Echo (12A)

Mexico / Germany | 2023 | 102' | 12A | Spanish with English subtitles | Tatiana Huezo | Montserrat Hernández Hernández | Luz Maria Vázques González

In the remote village of El Eco that exists outside of time, the children care for the sheep and their elders. While the frost and drought punish the land, they learn to understand death, illness and love with each act, word, and silence of their parents. A story about the echo of what clings to the soul, about the certainty of shelter provided by those around us, about rebellion and vertigo in the face of life.
