Abril, It's Not Winter Today offers a gritty exploration of urgency and the human condition. The documentary-thriller hybrid unfolds slowly yet intensely, with Ángeles Blanco's character pulling us into her world. Her role as a lawyer for individuals with cerebral palsy gives a real sense of purpose, but the mystery surrounding the SOS message adds layers of tension and suspense. The pacing has this almost breathless quality, where each moment feels like a ticking clock. The raw performances, particularly from Ángeles, provoke real empathy, making you feel her frustration and desperation. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, but it’s that very weight that keeps you engaged. It’s distinctive for how it blends real-life issues with a suspenseful narrative.
