Some movies, like The August Virgin, feel like summer days. Hot, lazy, where anything goes. Taking place over two weeks in August, the film follows Eva, a woman in thirtysomething crisis, on the cusp of birthing her new self, the next phase of her life. But there's no insemination (so to speak), and she's rudderless (but not insecure, I love her confidence) and looking for direction wherever it might be found - the past, the future, spiritualism, new and old places alike. Itsaso Arana is great in the role, taking us on an introspective journey that feels incredibly naturalistic - wandering through Madrid, effortlessly making summer friends, talking about this and that, honestly confronting her lack of orientation, choosing to say yes to things, those warm nights that don't end until you see the sun rise... SUCH a summer vibe. It's therefore "a mood", so be sure to be in a lackadaisical one before you sit down to this slow-burning character study, and be rewarded.raphaelbracquart
"Did I leave my country because of what I am, or am I like this because I left?"[...]
"I admire people who never left and yet still found freedom in their lives. It's easier to be free when you don't know anybody."
Some interesting thoughts about our being in the world, and how friends and family who surround us can vary through time! Nice acting too
