Pacíficum (2017)
Profound Peruvian Ocean Doc
This doc is beautifully done by Peruvians, and takes a big-hearted perspective on the Pacific Peruvian coast, indigenous people's attitudes about it, and the evolution of life on earth as relates to the oceans.
Beautiful music, great footage and editing, wonderfully modern/ancient perspective.
The Anniversary (2014)
A charming and delightful indie gem
The Anniversary is everything we hope for in an indie film: authentic humanity, a brilliant script with highly original characters, great music and a totally original story of heartbreak and longing.
And it has none of the things we fear in an indie film: the sound is exceptionally good for example. And the characters are quirky without stretching for the quirk.
It's so refreshing when a film has none of the clichés of Hollywood, but also avoids the clichés of independent films: it's simply a deeply human tale of love and loss and hope. The script is brilliant and fresh and real, the actors strong, and The Anniversary also has the most remarkable ending.
I'm going to have to see The Anniversary again, it's that good. What a fine gem of a film.
