The Invention of Soledad has this peculiar charm, blending comedy with a surreal twist. Soledad finds herself cooped up with her new boyfriend during a quarantine, which sets the stage for a bizarre love triangle. The remnants of his past relationship loom large, creating this palpable tension. I mean, who hasn't felt the shadows of an ex? The film plays with memory and presence, and it’s often laugh-out-loud funny, yet there's a subtle melancholy that seeps in. The practical effects when the ex-boyfriend's memory shows up add this layer of absurdity that's executed with a deft touch. The pacing feels right, allowing moments of reflection amidst the humor. It's not your typical rom-com, that's for sure.
