Laurita

About This Movie

Laurita, directed by an unknown hand, pulls you into the quiet turmoil of adolescence. Set against the backdrop of São Paulo's serene seashore, it captures the tension of Laura's changing body and her complex relationship with her mother. The film meanders through their vacation, revealing more than just the picturesque beach house; it's about the awkwardness of growing up and the often unspoken emotional landscapes. The pacing is languid, mirroring the slow passage of time and the weight of unexpressed feelings. Performances are understated yet powerful, with a rawness that feels almost documentary-like. It’s the kind of film that lingers in your mind, perhaps not for its plot, but for how it captures those fleeting moments of shared silence and unspoken understanding.
