A Fantastic Woman

a review by Crazypiglady

A very genuine and honest feeling film, It felt very natural even if uncomfortable in places. A slender plot but that wasn’t the point. The point was human interest, the characterisation and the vulnerability, strength and resilience of Marina in what was a very emotional story for her. Simply and convincingly delivered by the captivating performances of Reyes and particularly Daniela Vega who took this film to a higher plane. Lelio’s direction is beautiful, tenderly and sensitively executed. 8/10
