Quality political drama over here

8/10

"Amazing cinematography and chilling atmosphere, the pace isn't faster than it has to be. There were several scenes that gave me goosebumps. I believe that in order to truly appreciate it ,you must be aware of the political context and to which people and events this film's allegories and parallelisms refer to, as well as the folk tale of la llorona, thus many low ratings come from people who expected an average horror movie, without being able to comprehend what they're watching...."
