Quinha is an interesting piece, set in the Northeast of Brazil. You get this fascinating blend of a coming-of-age story wrapped in a maternal quest. The pacing feels almost dreamlike at times, with the little girl’s wonder juxtaposed against her mother’s more weighty concerns. The film captures the landscape beautifully, and there's a rawness to the performances – especially from Quinha and Rosa. They both have their own miracles to chase, which adds layers to their journey. You really get a sense of the cultural backdrop and the everyday magic people search for. It's not flashy, but there's something really intimate about how it unfolds. The practical elements give it this grounded feel, reminding you of life's small, significant moments.
