Mirabilis

About This Movie

So, 'Mirabilis' is a quirky little gem that really captures that feeling of disconnection. Fausto, our botanist protagonist, is on this journey through comedy and a bit of melancholy. It's a tragic comedy, you know? The interplay between his love for plants and his awkward attempts at human connection creates this fascinating atmosphere. The pacing is a bit erratic, which oddly complements the rootless lives of the characters. I found Cecilia to be quite the enigma—her complexity adds layers to the narrative. There's a rawness in the performances that feels genuine, almost like watching a slice of life unfold. The cinematography, though not flashy, does a nice job of grounding the film, making those moments of warmth hit harder. Definitely one of those films that sticks with you in an odd way.
