Aquí (There Is No Other Place) Aquí
Adapted from J.M. Coetzee’s trilogy, the film portrays a dystopian world where memory has been erased and conformity is enforced. David, a curious and defiant child, arrives as a refugee with his guardian, Simón, and faces a society that suppresses individuality. As David challenges the system, Simón and Inés grapple with the complexities of parenthood to protect him.
