Why watch the movie Manta Ray?
"Awarded as the best film of the Horizontes selection at the Venice Film Festival 2018, 'Mantarraya: los espíritus ausentes' is a beautiful surprise from Thai cinema, an intimate drama with touches of surrealism and much symbolism, that with beautiful and colorful images manages to transcend any nationality and border to touch on universal themes. Through beautiful and hypnotic images (and a radical change of atmosphere halfway through), the film speaks to us about compassion, solidarity and friendship, especially towards those who are forced to move without managing to find a place to call home in the world."
