A stunning, tender new film from acclaimed writer-director Carla Simón (Summer 1993, Alcarràs). Orphaned at a young age, 18-year-old Marina travels to Vigo on Spain’s Atlantic coast to meet the family she never knew and obtain the signature she needs for her filmmaking scholarship. As she navigates a sea of new aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins, she uncovers long-buried emotions and unspoken wounds while piecing together the contradictory memories of the parents she barely remembers.
