15th Romanian Film Week: La Civil

La Civil
feature film, Belgium/Romania/Mexico, 140 min, 2021
in Spanish language, with Hungarian and English subtitles

Show times:

Director: Teodora Ana Mihai

Story of Cielo, a mother whose teenage daughter is kidnapped in Northern Mexico. When the authorities offer no support in the search, Cielo takes matters into her own hands and transforms from housewife into a vengeful militant.

„Filmmaker Teodora Ana Mihai, who was born in Romania and is now based in Ghent, Belgium, initially conceived “La Civil” as a documentary. And while the final project, which she co-wrote with Mexican-born writer Habacuc Antonio de Rosario, is very much a work of fiction, there’s a nonfiction sensibility that still echoes through the film itself.” (Manuel Betancourt, Variety)
