Why watch this film?
"Summer 1993" is a beautiful movie with autobiographical elements from the Spanish director Carla Simón, who masterfully narrates the moments of a small girl who becomes an orphan due to an "unnamed" illness, surrounded by mystery and secrets: AIDS in the nineties. A subtle and beautiful movie that you definitely have to give yourself the opportunity to watch.

From the same director
Carta a mi madre para mi hijo
From director Carla Simón (winner of the Berlin Golden Bear for Alcarràs), Carta a mi madre para mi hijo is a short film that is part of the Miu Miu Women's Tales project, the Italian high fashion brand's initiative to bring together the best female filmmakers of the moment. Filmed while Simón was pregnant, the short film is an intimate tribute to her mother, to memory, and a warm attempt to immortalize the maternal bond through cinema. It is a simple, even scattered narrative at times, but very beautiful and moving.
Alcarràs
The Spanish director Carla Simón (Verano 1993) returns with a new intimate and sensitive portrait of family life and childhood, now framed in a moment of crisis. Alcarràs follows a family that, for generations, has been dedicated to the cultivation of peaches in a small Catalan town, but the world comes crashing down when they are stripped of their land and forced to evacuate. The filmmaker once again opts for naturalistic performances that are impecable and elevate this intimate portrait of the simultaneous fragility and strength of belonging and family life.

Life after death is the main theme in this drama about the process of transformation of a man during his surprising and enlightening experiences in the spiritual dimension. With magnificent art direction and special effects that have never been seen before in a Brazilian production, the film brings to the screen the most important work by Brazilian medium Chico Xavier who, through the account of the spirit of doctor André Luiz, describes in great detail what life is like at “ASTRAL CITY: A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY”.
