About This Movie

Things I Forgot to Remember is this charming little bittersweet comedy that dives into the complexities of identity and family. Set against the backdrop of Cuban-American life, it captures Robertico's internal struggle as he navigates the tensions of feeling 'not American enough.' The mix of Spanish and English adds authenticity, creating an inviting atmosphere. The pacing moves along nicely, blending humor with poignant moments, and the practical effects are very much in line with the indie vibe of the late '90s. The performances feel genuine, especially from the family ensemble. It’s a film that captures the immigrant experience with a unique lens, making you smile while pondering deeper themes of belonging and acceptance.
