Víctor Blanes Picó El antepenúltimo mohicano La Próxima Piel creates its own, unique identity and original blend of genres and allusions.

Bermejo Cinemanía (Spain) A unique and intimate thriller, a perfect puzzle made of ice that only the warmth of a mother is capable of dissolving.

j F Sometimes agonizing to watch, with a plot that only teased itself forward, leaving many questions unanswered. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/27/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a small gem. A movie either you see by chance or by recommendation of someone you really trust regarding cinema. An identity conflict is the main subject of the plot. But you will also find many subterranean rivers that in one specific moment coincide and surface with the force of a geyser. A must-see independent movie with superb acting and unforgettable scenes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Es una película con una trama simple, pero tiene suficiente profundidad para ser interesante. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Difficult movie with an unlikeable protagonist. None the less the characters and the setting are believable and the movie being set in rural Pyrenees and being multilingual french-catalan is an extra star for me. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
