Latte e Biscotti

About This Movie

Latte e Biscotti weaves a raw narrative that delves into trauma and resilience through a unique lens. The atmosphere is haunting, with a dreamlike quality that juxtaposes the harsh realities Ester faces. It’s not just a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood; it feels like a reclamation of power. The pacing ebbs and flows, allowing the audience to linger on Ester's emotional journey. Performances are compelling, particularly the lead, who embodies vulnerability with an authenticity that’s hard to shake off. The practical effects are minimal, which I think adds to the film's starkness. It really challenges the viewer to consider the darker shades of fairy tales, making the experience both impactful and thought-provoking.
