the things I keep from my mother 2023

sometimes, we have to let our wounds bleed.

Directed by Estefania Ortiz

Gonzalo, now 18, chooses not to take his deceased father's car, even though it was expected that he would. This unexpected choice perplexes everyone, especially his mother. The car becomes a symbol of an unresolved family wound, only to heal when Gonzalo honestly admits to his mother that he doesn't remember his father.
