So, 'Mi santa mirada' is this intriguing little drama that peeks into the life of Sammy, a guy who's deep in the drug trade but still has this tender side. You really feel his loneliness, the weight of responsibility for his younger brother, and there's this almost poetic bond with his horse. The film does a good job of painting a raw picture of marginalized Puerto Rico, capturing those overlooked spaces. It's got this slow pacing, which honestly works in its favor, letting you soak in the atmosphere. The performances aren’t flashy, but they’re genuine and pull you into Sammy's world. It’s distinct in how it handles its themes of isolation and loyalty without being overly dramatic. Worth a watch if you appreciate character-driven stories.
