Atarrabi & Mikelats

About This Movie

Atarrabi & Mikelats offers a unique mix of folklore and family dynamics, wrapped in a dark fable-like narrative. The film explores themes of choice and consequence through its central characters—two brothers torn between their mother's divine nature and their father's mortal roots. The pacing is quite deliberate, allowing the atmospheric visuals to wash over you, almost hypnotic in a way. The devil, a fascinating character here, is not just a villain but a complex figure who shapes their destinies. Practical effects add a rawness that enhances the storytelling. It's not your typical drama; there's a dreamlike quality that lingers, making you ponder long after the credits roll.
