About This Movie

Kentannos. May You Live To Be 100! is a poignant documentary that gently explores the lives of centenarians in Costa Rica. The film casts a tender light on Panchita, who at 109, is waiting for her family, weaving a narrative that feels both intimate and universal. The pacing slows down to match the contemplative nature of its subjects, encouraging viewers to reflect on aging and love. Sarita’s candid affection for a much younger man adds an unexpected twist, highlighting the timeless nature of desire. The practical effects here are, well, life itself—no frills, just the beauty of existence. There’s a rawness in the performances that really stands out, making it feel like a slice of life rather than a polished documentary. It’s distinctive in its simplicity and ability to let characters breathe.
