Forgotten Roads

In a Chilean town surrounded by UFO's, an aging widow forms a special and risky bond with a bon-vivant lady, leading to a revolutionary romance. As both women explore elements of time lost and regrets, they open up for a new chance while awakening their sexuality. Living in such conservative and small village, the only place they find solace is a forbidden night club, whose owner, an elderly glamorous gay man, is one of her childhood friends. They dream of escaping the archaic system and community, especially when the protagonist's daughter rejects her mother's new lifestyle, but will have to deal with unexpected challenges. Impressively performed, First-time Writer-Director Nicol Ruiz Benavides crafts a tender, mysterious and metaphorical romance.

What a beautiful film & a brave one too! This movie shows how difficult it is to live in a small town when you're so different from the others like an alien, but also it's a reminder of being brave in life to be able to live it for real & be happy. It remind us that is never too late to start living it fully. The music & the photography of this film makes you feel the nostalgia of the main character mixed with the romance of dreaming to be free. I loved this movie! Recommended without any doubt. Enjoy it if you're not afraid of being yourself & let others be themselves. You're going to love it if you're brave.
