David, a young middle-class Jewish man--corpulent, homosexual and afraid of flying--returns to Buenos Aires from Europe for the funeral of his uncle. On his return, David learns that his mother has decided to disconnect his father's respirator, the only thing that has kept him alive for years. David will oscillate between living in close quarters with his mother, alienated by the pain of the imminent loss of her husband, and a voracity to fill his existential anguish, occupying his hours learning to drive, seeking low-cost medical treatments, and trying to have sex with any man who shows him a little attention.

Pablo O. Scholz Clarín ... David's character is at times hilariously insufferable. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/4 Nov 15, 2024 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com Despite that (or precisely because of it), Most People Die on Sundays has several elements and layers that make it an appealing and emotional movie. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Pablo De Vita La Nación (Argentina) But this work by Said, as sensitive as it is intimate, focuses on overcoming conflicts and accepting identity, individually and collectively, with infinite tenderness. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Nov 8, 2024 Full Review Ankit Jhunjhunwala ScreenAnarchy Most People Die On Sundays represents David’s aimlessness almost too well as the film itself comes across as meandering, ill-formed and without a proper destination in mind. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 20, 2024 Full Review Nuria Vidal Cinemanía (Spain) A light and unclassifiable film, full of charm. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine Said delivers a work that is both light and profound, offering a unique look at how humor can be a refuge from pain.
