Review of Aquarius (2016) by Tvjerry — 23 Oct 2016
This is a showcase for Sonia Braga. She plays a widow who staunchly goes thru life with family and friends (and some flashbacks). She's the last resident of her building and won't sell to the owners, who want to replace it with a luxury residence.
Her refusal serves as the conflict around which her daily life takes place. There are lots of little moments, quiet observations and an ambiguous ending, typical of foreign cinema. Braga is wonderful to watch, which is good since this film is more about character than plot.
In subtitles.
