Why watch this film?
This feature film is quite reminiscent of 'The Cave', nominated for an Oscar in 2020 about a hospital in the midst of war in Syria. The difference here, besides being about coronavirus, is that the direction opted to be a diffuse observer of the facts instead of focusing on a doctor, a patient, a story. On the one hand, it has its benefits. The film becomes more dynamic and it is interesting to observe the different effects of the disease on different people. However, it loses connection with the viewer, who cannot get attached to any of the stories. In the end, it ends up being more of a great document about one of the most complicated moments in History than a great movie. I have no doubt that in the future, '76 Days' will be used in schools so that new generations can better understand a little of what we went through in the sad year of 2020.

All in My Family
Through the personal experience of director Hao Wu, 'My Families' is a moving documentary that explores the contradictions between conservative thought, acceptance and family love in a society like China, where tradition and honor hold so much weight. Short (it's only 40 minutes), it's a film to make us reflect on the world of today.

The Woman of Stars and Mountains
Rita Patiño, an indigenous woman from Mexico, was found by a human rights organization inside a Kansas psychiatric hospital, where she had been involuntarily confined, for 12 years, despite the fact that the hospital authorities were never able to determine who was this woman, where did she come from, or what language she spoke. After the consequences of confinement and medical negligence, Rita returned to Mexico, where she lives with Juanita, her niece, and primary caregiver, in a context of precarious economic possibilities. A moving portrait of the lives of these two Tarahumara women, questioning the multiple forms of racism and discrimination that indigenous women in Mexico and the United States face.
