With Eyes Shut is a poignant exploration of familial bonds, focusing on Gabo and Maga, an elderly couple who are intricately tied to their granddaughter Delia. The film crafts an intimate atmosphere that captures the warmth of their shared life, yet there's an undercurrent of tension as Delia, at 27, grapples with her own aspirations against the backdrop of her grandparents’ unwavering dependence on her. The pacing is gentle, reflecting the slow passage of time, but there are moments where it feels like the weight of unspoken truths is pressing down. The performances are quietly powerful, particularly the chemistry between the trio, which feels authentically lived-in. It’s not flashy, but the emotional depth lingers long after the credits roll.
