Wendy Ide Screen International 05/11/2018
Although it is in some ways slight, much of Los Silencios' ultimate power is tied to its simplicity. Go to Full Review

Los silencios is a quiet marvel. Go to Full Review
Kaleem Aftab Cineuropa 10/31/2018
It's a film about how to deal with the loss of a loved one... Yet Seigner is careful not to hammer these points home; they slowly creep up on us, as we are rapt in the story of ghosts, and who and what is or is not real. Go to Full Review

Annie C Aug 20 This is the kind of film that should win awards yet gets lost in the mix due to lack of funding. The acting is superb, especially Marleyda Soto. It is understated overall, moving, and meditating. See more 07/10/2021 Uma realidade crua, cineasta Beatriz Seigner soube captar muito bem a crueza e os infortúnios dos refugiados, ao misturar realidade e ficção, onde alguns atores (como presidente e avó) são moradores da Ilha, atuação estupenda da família, simplicidade cativante, misticismo e a crença presentes de forma mágica encantadora... E o desfecho, surpreendente, aquele plot twist tão meigo, tão sutil, que nos gera a dúvida, "foi isso mesmo?" e relembrando, tudo se encaixa, excelente produção, rude e pura. See more 07/19/2019 Pésima de principio a fin, el guión es del todo inconsistente, la cinematografía parece un ejercicio de universidad, los actores son pésimos, con excepción de Marleyda, y se nota que son mal dirigidos. La historia no dice nada y termina siendo una espantosa versión amazónica de "The Sixth Sense". See more Read all reviews
