Elisa e Marcela

Beautiful photograpy, wonderful story... How could you not love this movie ?! This is one of the most beautifull I have ever seen.

Very emotional, true story about two girls in love. I cried several times. I dont understand whz the reviews and critics review is so bad. For me it is one of the best movies I ever watched. The acting is pure art. The scenes and the attraction and love.

I wasn't expecting an arthouse film but a traditional narrative, and so was pleasantly surprised. The formal critic reviews I read beforehand, were overly harsh methinx. Using contemporary film-making styles with dramatic dialogue, scenes of conflict, characterisatiion development etc to drive a plot, would not have enhanced it in my view. While the critics were "eye rolling" and complaining of how slow it was moving, i was walking through an art gallery, lingering on moments captured beautifully in the B&W landscape.

It is a simple tale told with minimal dialogue primarily through imagery, with beauty, poignancy, grief, the playful innocence of the girls they once were, the elemental power of giving birth, among other things. The archetype images of the first Goddess in her aspects of Maiden, Mother, Crone across the three acts. The erotic scenes so pooh-poohed by the critics were also staged with poetic metaphors of the Feminine spiritual principle of Nature.

This movie is so heartbreaking and full of emotions yet so good and so pure and the acting is so good they captured the real story really good and the black and white whole affect thing was a nice touch, I loved the full nudity of it, lol , no , like , I felt almost like I was with them, which is hard to do. In summary I loved the whole movie I think that you should totally watch it !

I just stumbled upon it while searching for a different genre to watch but glad to watch this excellent melodramatic movie, crafted with so much attention and with a great ending. A delicate subject, well handled with superb acting. Excellent acting work overall, sometimes you could actually feel what they were going through. Interestingly, it does not contain too many explicit erotic scenes. And it is black and white which has added a sort of surrealism to the movie; you are lost in the 1920s as if you are living in that age. Those of you who have seen "Ammonite" or "Blue is the Warmest Colour" would love it.
