17 Minutes with Nora screened at the Satisfied Eye International Film Festival and deservedly walked away with some awards at its closing awards ceremony.

With perfectly pitched performances by both Alex Silleras and Isak Ferriz it's an expertly scripted and composed short.

Shining a light on a profoundly pertinent subject, it does so in an unshowy and sophisticated manner, giving the story and characters time to breathe and allowing the audience to connect with these well-rounded and thoughtfully evoked subjects in its brief run time.

With a nod to Ibsen's masterpiece - which itself tackled profound subjects in its day - it's a film in which all those involved can be justly proud.

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.
