Enroque

About This Movie

Enroque is this fascinating piece that delves into the intertwining fates of two families amid the backdrop of the Falklands War. The atmosphere is heavy, layered with tension and desperation. Dr. Fernández and his son Emilio returning after two decades adds a poignant depth to the narrative. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing viewers to sit with the weight of each moment, which I think is quite effective. Performances are understated but impactful, capturing the raw emotions of their situation. It's distinct in how it portrays the complexities of human relationships during a tumultuous time, rather than just focusing on the war itself. It's a thoughtful exploration of conflict and human connection, more about the personal than the grand political.
