Andrea Zamora Sensacine The Red Virgin is also distinguished by the delicacy present in some of the images. Not only for their beauty and use of color but also for the metaphorical charge they contain. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 2, 2024 Full Review Eduardo Larrocha EscribiendoCine The story of Aurora and Hildegart is fascinating; its terrifying truthfulness is affectingly and intimately conveyed. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 9/10 Sep 30, 2024 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) The Red Virgin, Paula Ortiz's fifth feature film, reaches excellence. [Full review in Spanish] Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Juan Pando Fotogramas The camera, always moving but without causing motion sickness, finds the intimacy of the characters, and scrutinizes them with close-ups and extreme close-ups. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/5 Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof Ortiz's direction continues to be among the most notable in the panorama of new Spanish filmmakers, but her tendency towards a more classic narrative ends up clashing with some more experimental scenes...
