Quién te cantará

After Lila (Najwa Nimri) is found unconscious in the water, she has amnesia, so her friend Blanca (Carme Elias) helps her recover. Lila's house is right on the waterfront, and is quite grand, so Blanca tells her she'll need to start singing at concerts again to support her lifestyle. Acc to the trivia section, the story of a singer retiring after the death of a family member is based on a real japanese singer, although i would guess it's a frequent occurence. Co-stars Eva Llorach as Violeta, Natalia de Molina as Marta. The script is so sparse.... it's almost artistic. Lots of still and slowly panning images. As the story goes on, we find out more and more details of what led Lila to be on the beach. And everyone's relationship with their own mother. Some things are left unanswered, so it may not be for everyone. And some scenes just go on way too long. (Marta) it really didn't need to be over two hours long. I'll need to watch this again to try to figure out just what happened. Nimri had been in the successul Open your Eyes, the original spanish version of vanilla sky here in the u.s. Cantara is subtitled on netflix. Written and directed by carlos vermut. Many awards at the film festivals. He seems to like to write and direct his own projects.

I am speechless literally. I want to like it but I can't; it could have been better structured, the track seems inaccurate to me, messy at times. It has the elements and potential to have been a masterpiece,but there's a moment when it loses its point. Some hints are beautifully made, but some others are incomprehensible... And pointless.

Sometimes too long shots but in the end it is awesome and deep film

Martha appears to be bipolar and it was mentally exhausting for Violet to raise her. Martha is 23, but still lives with mother continuing her abuse when she is in a severe mood episode. Violet gave up her career as a singer for her, getting nothing in return. Yet, externally she appears to be calm. She dutifully continues to carry her cross despite Martha's abuse. . Lila has her own mother/daughter story as the movie progresses that also centers around song writing and singing. Violet and Lila come together and transform each other. Even though transformation was short lived for Violet, she fulfilled her dreams.

I personally don't see any plot holes. What happened to amnesia? Amnesia could reverse on its own. But I believe it was not amnesia that prevented Lila from singing. It was her guilt. I recommend you to watch this movie. Your perception could be different.

I saw this great film at cinema and wine festival in La Solana at The end of November 2018. The atmosphere created by The director was intense and absorBe You totally. I find Carlos Vermut a potencial genious director, creative and different, with an extraordinary sensibility. The actresses sublime. I highly recommend this film to author film lovers.
