Clara Sola (2021)

£0.00


Country: SV/Costa Rica/BEL/GER/FR/US
Technical: col/2.35:1 106m
Director: Nathalie Álvarez Mesén
Cast: Wendy Chinchilla Araya, Ana Julia Porras Espinoza, Daniel Castañeda Rincón

Synopsis:

Fifteen year-old María lives on the edge of the rainforest with her grandma and aunt, who suffers from a spinal abnormality and arrested development but is cherished by the community as a medium of the Virgin Mary.

Review:

Centred around the late awakening of the aunt's sex drive, and the fate of her beloved white horse, Mesén's film rejects Catholicism in favour of some sort of pantheism. The simple character of Clara, nicknamed Sola (alone), is seen to be in harmony with the natural world but ultimately unfitted to society. Not without interest, it takes an inordinately long time to make its points.
