Refreshingly, Simón's take on the "summer that changed everything" movie is delicate and unsentimental, earning an emotional response simply by exploring how a child interprets loss from the child's perspective and at the child's pace. Sep 25, 2018 | Full Review…

In its subtlety, richness and warmth it is entirely beguiling - complex and simple at the same time. It is also very moving. Jul 12, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

It's a film entirely lacking in pomp, but there's a certain bravado in its delicate reservation. A tender and spare meditation on family unfurls in the stillness of a sleepy, sun-soaked Spanish summer. Jun 14, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Its depiction of Frida as being at the mercy of powerful emotions she cannot yet comprehend, and how childhood itself is often bittersweet, is universal and timeless. Mar 27, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Rather, Summer 1993 is less family melodrama and more a love letter to childhood and to the parents who shape it. Dec 21, 2018 | Rating: 7.5/10 | Full Review…

Here, we get a nuanced and heartbreaking picture of a child displaced to her Aunt and Uncle. However, the film needs to have more insights to sustain itself. Oct 30, 2018 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…
