Excellent. It's so socially representative and paced in such beautiful way that it seems little to say that this movie is masterfully played. Inherently the best foreign piece of the year.

**Quotes** Marina Vidal: What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. ****A great movie, a great director, and great performances.**** It's hard to even talk about LGBT matters in a country like Chile, so is exactly right there the significance of Sebastian Lelio's work. The characterizations are so well performed by the actors and actresses, that you can feel the anger and frustration of Marina, the love that Orlando feels for her, the everyday struggle of Marina in a society that rejects her sexuality, the hate from Orlando's family, etc. Is necessary a movie like this, is necessary a more open-mind society, is necessary to stop discrimination, is necessary to stop the hate. A fantastic woman, is ready to show the audience that there is no differences between a transgender person and a heterosexual one, the strong main character of Marina, will make you feel her never-ending fight to gain some respect, and how bad we, as society, make her feel. Thanks to Sebastian Lelio for bring this taboo to the light. Excellent work. My Score: 8/10.

Evocative of the prejudice shown to the transgender community, this film raises the flag and highlights the casual injustices that are meted out. A sad but hopeful film, and a reminder for us all to show tolerance and acceptance, as we are all still human, despite perceived differences.

A very genuine and honest feeling film, It felt very natural even if uncomfortable in places. A slender plot but that wasn’t the point. The point was human interest, the characterisation and the vulnerability, strength and resilience of Marina in what was a very emotional story for her. Simply and More

Daniela Vega gives a very strong performance as the lead transgender woman (Marina) who struggles to cope with persecution and prejudice while trying to mourn the loss of her partner. It will obviously draw comparisons to Sean Baker's 'Tangerine' in terms of LGBT themes. The film is not without flaw More
