Carmina

About This Movie

Carmina is a fascinating piece, a documentary that feels both raw and intimate. Directed by Luis Flores Rábago, it follows a young woman on a seemingly ordinary night that spirals into something much deeper. The atmosphere is thick with tension, as Carmina reckons with her past during an unsettling visit to an older man's apartment. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the viewer to really soak in her emotional landscape. It doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths, which makes it feel genuine. The practical effects are minimal, yet the film’s strength lies in Carmina’s performance—a blend of vulnerability and resilience that’s hard to shake off. It’s not your typical doc, definitely stands out for its approach.
