A bit depressing, made me feel homesick. It bothers me that other than the rich destroy the small farmer, it doesn't offer any optimistic message or solution. It just says what we already know.

Rural Spanish neorealism that addresses the crisis of traditional agriculture (while surreptitiously avoiding labor exploitation) to portray a family facing the extinction of their way of life. It does not have the thematic richness of "Utama" (2022), with which it shares some reflections and the use of non-professional actors, and unnecessarily lengthens in the childish gaze, which does not suffer from the present but faces an uncertain future. But this film, which has beautiful cinematography but a superfluous narrative, doesn't provide the emotion it needs because it doesn't know how to build characters that, beyond the amateurism of the actors, feel authentic.

I don't understand how this film has won the golden bear. And much less how it's nominated for best film at the Goya. I finished watching it because I don't like to leave movies half done.

Like a senile old man: it retells the same story we've heard hundreds of times before and didn't even like the first time. Guess what, working on a farm is hard and getting harder and technology is progressing. Of all the films I've seen in this genre, this is one of the least original.

As we urbanize, we distance ourselves further and further from the small farm. Putting all those middlemen and greedy corporations between us and the farmer, causes us to pay outrageous prices for fresh food and the small farmers to become broke. As an urban dweller, we have no personal knowledge of More

A family of long established and hard working peach farmers find their lives turned upside down when the owner of their land dies. It seems that there was a gentleman's agreement for this arrangement to continue down the generations, but when the wealthy son decides to sell the land to developers, t More
