“Undisputably the worthiest candidate for the Golden Seashell”.

Mikel Insausti, GARA

“Flashes of brilliant genius”.

Juan Zapater, NOTICIAS DE GUIPUZKOA

“A director who feels comfortable with small spaces, the basics of cinematographic forms and escapades with the structure of the story in order to investigate human relationships on a small scale”.

Ricardo Aldarondo, EL DIARIO VASCO ESPECIAL

“A very well made piece which is founded on discretion and the strength of the story. Mission complete”.

Ricardo Aldarondo, EL DIARIO VASCO ESPECIAL

“This truth, which the audience witnesses barely without blinking, is going to be transformed into a haiku (…) the story flows, excites, surprises and questions the fragility of existence”.

Aida Amasuno Martín, CINEUROPA

“The pace is carried by the striking narrative decisions, which break the film down and put it back together in a surprising way".

David González, CINEUROPA

“Arango keeps this ambitious Project spinning with impressive confidence”.

Jonathan Romney, SCREEN DAILY

“Fascinating and overwhelming gibberish made up of dialogue, extras and camera movements”.

B.T., EL DIARIO VASCO ESPECIAL

“Loach is the highest representative of social cinema”.

Beñat Eizagirre, BERRIA

“Belgian director Joachim Lafosse undeniably has a skill for exploring human issues in a personal way”.

M.G.G., EL DIARIO VASCO ESPECIAL

“One of those films that grabs you from start to finish (…) One of the most joyful films of the year”.

Mikel G. Gurpegui, EL DIARIO VASCO ESPECIAL

“Few directors manage to stun me like this cinematographic genius, who has a seemingly astonishing knack for simply setting his camera up in the right time and place in order to convey an unending stream of emotions”.

Koldo Landaluze, GARA

“Its ‘Irrintziaren oihartzunak’ (“echoes of cries”) have the virtue of showing us a figure that is forgotten, if not completely unknown, of shining the spotlight on none other than the first female Basque filmmaker”.

Mikel G. Gurpegui, EL DIARIO VASCO ESPECIAL

“More than just a simple exercise in cinematographic archaeology, it is a navigational chart which allows us to follow the tracks of a pioneer who was stung by the poison of cinema in the tumultuous 1970s (…) A perspective on the Basque Country as it was at that time, loaded with symbolism and poetry”.

Koldo Landaluze, GARA
