El castillo de arena

Forced to disconnect from reality because the mind can no longer handle the situation. Entering an alternative within that broken mind, one that is so confused and scattered...is one's only escape from the pain and torment. Some of us have lived through that. It's like a body that goes into shock, and so does the mind when you have a nervous breakdown. The mind looks for ways to sever from the body to preserve life and ease the pain so one can survive. You feel you are drowning or treading water, but sometimes you see a light because there is internal intervention, via angels or other guardian beings.

Through the decades of cinema, there are movies that you enjoy most, movies that you love most, movies that you remember most, movies that you refer most but this one is different. To understand and to appreciate this movie you need to have guts. You need to have passions. You need to have knowledge about what it talks about. It's a movies that blends with the art makers want to deliver to you! Before starting to watch this movie remember that you don't have to expect anything from this movie and I want to warn all of you that don't expect that this movie is a thriller one! It's a movie that can bend your mind!

I cannot lie, it's not the best film I have ever seen in my life, but I feel that is necessary. The message that it sends is really important and I feel that people here saying it's not worth it are talking through their priviledge. As I said, it's not the best out there but not the worst either, I personally like slow burn stories so I enjoyed this one, but it's true that the storyline develops really slowly. I really liked the photography too, I liked the colors and the angles, and I think that they are weel thought so they can add to the story. At first I was thinking that the plot would take one way but I was completely wrong, and in the end it leaves you with a deep message. I'm pretty sad that people don't think about this film with the context of it incorporated because I feel that's the most important part. For me, it's a pretty enterntaining watch!

The movie packed uncommonly. It's not intended for commoners. It need special knowledge and composure to understand the message of the overall story.

It's like spotting mirage in the middle of dessert. Full of mystery, surreal and tragically heartbreaking in the end. Very unusual way to send the message but I completely understand after final watching the movie.

Very nice movie and touching.

The storyline is running slow. But, don't worry. It meant to be. At first, I feel worry and dread while guessing what was happening back then, why it's happened like that, when it happened.

This is how you can find your empathy what was happening in the real world.

Sand Castle is not just a movie; it's a mirror to the chaos of our times. It boldly explores the futility of power games and reminds us that nature is the ultimate force. This is not a film that's going to spoon-feed you answers-it demands you to think, to reflect, and to bring your own life experiences into its narrative.

The cast is phenomenal, the writing gutsy, and the cinematic experience unforgettable. If you're expecting mindless entertainment, look elsewhere. But if you value a movie that challenges your perspective and lingers in your thoughts, Sand Castle is a must-watch. For those leaving shallow reviews-perhaps start by reactivating your brain.
