Old Wounds is a rich blend of comedy and pathos, centering on Joanna, a sixty-year-old housewife. The pacing is deliberate, giving the audience space to absorb the gravity of her awakening. What’s striking here is how it navigates the complexity of mother-daughter dynamics, as Isabel confronts Joanna, peeling back layers of her character. The performances are raw and genuine, especially the emotional exchanges that reveal Joanna’s frailties. It’s not flashy in terms of production—no over-the-top effects—but rather relies on the weight of the dialogue and the performances to deliver its impact. The atmosphere is intimate, almost claustrophobic at times, perfectly reflecting Joanna's internal struggle. Definitely a unique take on self-discovery and regret.
