Estragos

About This Movie

Estragos, directed by Raúl Reynoso, is a somber exploration of human fragility and resilience. The film's pacing is deliberate, really allowing you to sink into its brooding atmosphere. The performances are raw, almost unpolished, which adds to that sense of realism. It carries a heavy weight, dealing with themes of loss and the lingering effects of trauma. The practical effects, though minimal, are used effectively to enhance the emotional stakes without overwhelming the narrative. It's distinctive in how it immerses you in its characters' emotional landscapes—there's a kind of quiet intensity that lingers long after the credits roll. Definitely a film that stays with you, even if it's not easy to watch.
