Las Gentiles (2021) |
It was very difficult to tell a story that leads in a straight line to the temptation of suicide without any hint of transcendence or shock. And Las gentiles does it in an exemplary and moving way. [Full review in Spanish] - Caimán Cuadernos de Cine

Broker (2022) |
There is an undisguised component of comedy – to a matter as serious as baby trafficking...but that is the miracle that fiction can work when it reveals itself as a cure for prejudices and sterile dogmas.
