Filmography

On the Pacific coast of Mexico, in the land Ina Marija had chosen as her home before she died too soon, her father and her younger sister Una embark on a journey retracing her steps. There, amidst the extraordinary and resilient nature of the mangroves — in a Laguna battered by hurricanes yet perpetually reborn — they begin to navigate the tender terrain of grief. Sharunas Bartas, directing the film, lays his emotions bare in an act of transmission, allowing for a reconstruction anchored in the natural cycles of life.
