To Rosa

About This Movie

So, 'To Rosa' is this quiet, intimate film that really dives into the emotional struggles of a young girl caught in a tough spot. Rosa, at just 15, is dealing with the heavy weight of her father's impending death while navigating the quiet chaos of her oyster-farming life. The way Anna Borie directs it, there's this rawness to the performances, especially from the lead. There's a tenderness in Rosa's relationship with Adel that feels both fragile and powerful, you know? The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really soak in the atmosphere of their coastal setting. It's not flashy; it’s more about the subtleties and the way grief can reshape connections, which is just beautifully done.
