Olivia Popp Cineuropa Long, immersive scenes between family members and intimate moments where the camera simply observes everyday interactions create a fly-on-the-wall feeling that contributes to a strong sense of place where global and neighbourhood politics collide. Oct 21, 2024 Full Review José C. Donayre Guerrero EscribiendoCine An exciting and moving story that, through a mix of genres, offers us a unique and profound vision of family legacy and the secrets that surround it. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Aug 16, 2024 Full Review Daniel Allen Loud and Clear Reviews Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed is worth a watch for how it bends the documentary form, distorting the context of real footage to interrogate the notions of technology and memory. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 25, 2024 Full Review Àngel Quintana Caimán Cuadernos de Cine A lucid vision of something that is within the social unconscious of Argentina. [Full review in Spanish] Jun 13, 2024 Full Review Jara Yáñez Caimán Cuadernos de Cine A dazzling labyrinth, in short, whose analysis is not exhausted in these few lines and to which we will undoubtedly return more calmly as soon as we find the opportunity. [Full review in Spanish] Jun 13, 2024 Full Review Hector A. Gonzalez InSession Film It is a crime drama with a neo-noir background that isn’t explored due to its focus on the personal and meditative – a blend of elements and dark tones that borrow from a variety of genres, most to its favor. Rated: B Jun 7, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
