North of Spain, end of the 19th century. During the final throes of the last Carlist war, a little girl is rescued from an orphanage by a mysterious woman who lives deep inside the forest. Badly wounded and close to death, the girl believes the woman to be an angel who has come to take her to Heaven. Soon, however, she will discover that what this strange being has actually given her is the gift of eternal life... by turning her into a vampire. Left with no choice but to accept her new condition, she will have to learn to live in the profound and painful loneliness of time, trapped inside her little girl's body. An infinity of moons go by before, one day, she meets Cándido, a humble man who takes her in and treats her as if she were his own daughter. Now the little girl will be set on a new path, one that will see her rebel against her animalistic nature and revive in her the hope of getting back the life that was stolen from her.

The acting is also very naturalistic, particularly from young Carneros, who is absolutely convincing...

Legarreta and cinematographer Imanol Nabea capture the drama in all its earthy, grimy glory, leaving the viewer touched by a powerfully poignant story and haunted by some truly heartbreaking, searing imagery.

Rated: 4.5/5

All the Moons is “elevated horror,” to be sure, but I’m not sure its labored metaphorical pretensions make it good horror, let alone a particularly moving fable.

All the Moons is a horror movie about life as a terminal condition. It's melancholy and beautiful, a Keatsian Grecian urn of a film...

Rated: 4/4

Paste Magazine

Tender familial lyricism elevates Igor Legarretas All The Moons, a Spanish wartime drama where vampires hide instead of seek.

Rated: 7/10

"All The Moons" is a beautiful and unconventional coming-of-age story. The movie follows a young girl who is learning to live as a vampire. The distinctive characteristics of this girl often collide with social conventions, such as the normal process of aging. These ongoing struggles ask for the audience's compassion and acceptance. A horror movie with a lot of soul and focused on the boundaries of what it means to be different.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

It's a beautiful movie, both in story and images. It shows all the sadness of living and seeing people you love dying. It has a really good message in the end.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Very different. It's dark & emotional. It still has the age old curse of having to live forever without truly living. Definitely recommend watching. "Now I know paradise.. fits inside a hand"
