Wonderful, subtle performance from Fernanda Torres. She rarely over-emoted or yelled but performed through being stoic and strong for her family. A true benchmark for internalizing and grounded.
I really liked the scenes early in the movie with the family. It showed how very close they are and how much love they have for each other. That makes it much harder emotionally later on in the movie. The relationship of the family came off very natural and not overly sappy.
It wasn't particularly cinematic, artistic, breaking any innovative ground in filmmaking. It just sought to tell a real life story as best as it could,
