We Are What We Are
Mexican filmmaker Jorge Michel Grau's debut feature is one of the most impactful and memorable debuts in contemporary national cinema. Just as George A. Romero did with zombie films in his time, 'We Are What We Are' takes on the violence perpetrated by cannibalism to comment on marginalization and family dynamics in Mexico, with healthy doses of macabre humor. It may turn your stomach, but it's a cult classic-worthy film due to its theme, aesthetic, and great cast featuring Paulina Gaitán (now known for films like 'Niñas bien' or TV series 'Diablo Guardián'), alongside renowned Mexican actors like Daniel Giménez Cacho ('Zama', 'Solo con tu pareja') and Jorge Zárate ('El infierno').
Perdida
Presented at the 17th Morelia International Film Festival, 'Perdida' is a Mexican remake of the successful 2011 Colombian film 'La cara oculta.' This new version is directed by Mexican filmmaker Jorge Michel Grau ('Somos lo que hay'), backed by a solid cast that includes José María de Tavira ('Rosario Tijeras'), Cristina Rodlo ('Too Old to Die Young', 'The Terror') and Colombian Paulina Dávila ('Aquí en la Tierra'). The result is an exciting and modest, but very well-directed thriller between police and psychological, in which discord and lust are the rule of the game.
Drama
Raspberries with Mustard
Meeri Ehrlich, 13 years old has three problems. First: She is in love - with the wrong person - and has butterflies in her tummy. Second: Her mother passed away and she misses her a lot. Third: her father - owner of a funeral home - is looking for a new partner. But Meeri has something that is only hers, something very special - she can fly.
Underdog
In its effort to raise awareness about the precarious social reality of certain sectors of the population, Mexican cinema tends to fall into miserabilism (or so-called "poverty porn"), whether in documentaries or fiction. The quest of Mexican cinema for new creative and narrative horizons is ongoing, and in the case of Underdog (Correr para vivir), director and co-writer Gerardo Dorantes opts for what, in its conventions, is an action and crime thriller extrapolated to the context of the Rarámuri (or Tarahumara) indigenous people of northern Mexico, famous for their running tradition (and their extraordinary talent for it). The plot follows two brothers: Omero (Vladimir Rivera), who dreams of being a runner; and Capó (Manuel Cruz Vivas), who is more talented but also troubled. Both are dragged into a life of service to the drug trade when Capó, in an attempt to provide for his pregnant girlfriend, fails in a cocaine delivery. To be honest, it's a good attempt to steer Mexican cinema towards other directions that are not the typical exploitation of social dramas or anthropological documentaries. However, the film ends up falling into the same vices, representing Rarámuri culture from a superficial and idealized exoticism, creating entertainment from a real social context with little sensitivity.
Downtown Owl
'Downtown Owl' - Searching for a break from her cosmopolitan life in Milwaukee, Julia Rabia (Lily Rabe), arrives in the closeknit Reagan-era town of Owl, North Dakota for a one-semester high school teaching job. But when the small town turns out to be a wonderland of second-string poets, smoldering Marlboro Men, and a social hierarchy that echoes high school, Julia doesn't know if she's come to town to get away from home or to find it. Ed Harris, Vanessa Hudgens, Henry Golding, and Finn Wittrock also star in this Great Plains dark dramedy directed by Lily Rabe and Hamish Linklater. Based on the novel by Chuck Klosterman.
