Film of the Week: I HAVE ELECTRIC DREAMS

I HAVE ELECTRIC DREAMS / TENGO SUEÑOS ELÉCTRICOS
A film by Valentina Maurel
(Costa Rica/Belgium/France, 2022, 101 min. In Spanish with English subtitles)

“The award-winning debut feature by writer/director Valentina Maurel focuses on Eva, a 16-year-old girl who lives with her mother, her younger sister, and their cat, but who wants to move in with her estranged father. Clinging onto him, she seeks balance between the tenderness and rebellion of teenage life. Bathed in richly textured imagery and soaked in raw sensitivity, the film captures the thin line between love and hate, in a world where aggression and rage are intertwined with the vertigo of female sexual awakening.” —Latin Wave; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston
