Why was this movie overlooked during Oscar time beats me....The story, the acting, everything about this movie is excellent. I seriously hope that this movie gets more attention because it truly deserves it. I actually forgot that I was watching a movie and honestly believed that the actresses were actually suffering from breast cancer. That is how pure and realistic their portrayal of cancer victims was. Did I cry? Of course I did! I cried with them,laughed with them and learned a lot, a lot from them and with them. Please, if you know anyone who has ever suffered from cancer you must watch this movie. Even if you don't know anyone you will not regret the incredible experience of watching this masterpiece.

Spanish-language cinema across Spain and Latin America is united by its engagement with history, cultural identity, and social transformation. In Spain, films often balance artistic experimentation with popular genres while reflecting on memory, politics, and family. In Latin America, cinema has been deeply tied to questions of colonial legacy, resistance, and community resilience, ranging from intimate dramas to bold political allegories.
