Since the World Was World offers a contemplative glimpse into rural life in Spain. Gonzalo, the farmer at the heart of the film, embodies a deep connection to tradition and sustainability. The pacing is meditative, allowing you to soak in the seasonal cycles of sowing and harvest. Notably, the practical effects are raw and authentic, showcasing the real processes behind food production—from the pig being slaughtered to the homemade wine fermenting quietly. The atmosphere is imbued with a sense of community and resilience, reflecting a timeless way of living that contrasts sharply with modernity. It’s the type of film that makes you reflect on values and the simplicity of life, with performance grounded in genuine emotion rather than theatrics.
