Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com “Through the Rocks and Clouds” is a defiant film, one that is so thoughtfully calibrated it’d be easy to miss just how well it mixes the whimsical with the profound. Feb 24, 2024 Full Review William Stottor Loud and Clear Reviews The childlike innocence and playfulness of Raíz (Through Rocks and Clouds) is enjoyable, but its depiction of tradition fighting modernisation is frustratingly meagre. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 3, 2024 Full Review Juan José Beteta Cinencuentro Because of these structural weaknesses, the movie is unable to take flight. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 16, 2024 Full Review Claudia Arteaga Olórtegui Cinencuentro Although it is a choice of approach – not all films that address environmental issues have to be political – it leaves us unsteady; a film that sought to combine aesthetic resources with a social theme but falls by the wayside. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Marya E. Gates Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack) Johan Carrasco’s cinematography envelopes the land with a mystical touch, capturing the beauty of the sun’s rays and the thick mist cast by the titular clouds Aug 5, 2024 Full Review Amarsanaa Battulga View of the Arts While its story is important and intentions well-meaning, its execution falls short of reaching the same level.
