One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
Jorge has only a few weeks with his five-year-old son Natan before he leaves to live with his mother in Rome. Intent on teaching Natan about their Mayan heritage, Jorge takes him to the pristine Chinchorro reef, and eases him into the rhythms of a fisherman's life. As the bond between father and son grows stronger, Natan learns to live in harmony with life above and below the surface of the sea.
"The best movies sometimes require very little, almost nothing, to leave us with lasting images in our minds, and 'Alamar' is the irrefutable proof. It is a drama filmed in the style of a documentary with beautiful images, an intimate story of father and son, worthy of multiple nominations and awards around the world, including two at the Morelia Festival. A little-known gem of contemporary Mexican cinema. Watch it, you won't regret it."
