Rodrigo Sorogoyen : 2019
Ten years have passed since Elena's son, then six years old, has disappeared. The last thing she heard of him was a phone call he made to her, saying that he was lost on a beach in France and couldn't find his father. Today, Elena lives on this same beach and manages a restaurant. She is finally beginning to emerge from this tragic episode when she meets a French teenager who strongly reminds her of her lost son. The two of them will embark on a relationship, which will sow chaos and distrust around them. A psychological drama of grief; the long-lasting effects of trauma on a 39-year-old woman; and a coming-of-age tale of a 16-year-old boy – the story of the relationship that develops between them at the tail end of a summer. Rodrigo Sorogoyen's feature premiered in competition in the Orizzonti section at Venice International Film Festival 2019, and received a Special Mention when it screened in competition at Festival Cinéma Méditerranéen Montpellier 2019.
