Fifteen-year-old Fanny and her parents retreat to their summer house, embracing familiar routines: reading, swimming, and walking. Beneath the quiet simplicity, an unspoken grief lingers--they know it will be her mother's last summer. As they try to seize the days they have left together, the family navigates the delicate balance between cherishing the present and facing what's to come.

Namrata Joshi The New Indian Express May 13
The soulful writing finds a matching rhythm in all aspects of filmmaking—be it the shot-taking and editing, the sound or production design. There is a languidness and lilt that suffuses the film. Go to Full Review
Leslie Felperin The Hollywood Reporter 10/03/2024

Cristina Aparicio Caimán Cuadernos de Cine 10/29/2024
The result is an honest film, crossed by the certainty of the undesirable, but also a coming of age that radiates a simple, nostalgic and eternal humanity. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
