Lives between the space of idealistic artistic expression and real world political turmoil. Me & The Beast is low key and a slow burn featuring some hypnotic music (one of them songs sounds a little too much like Space Oddity, my dude) and clean, clinical compositions. As we follow a middle class, depressed indie fella trying to follow his morals while attempting to complete his music all the while the world around him is actively reminding him the futile nature of his quest. On a particularly powerful scene he's forced to "lend" his guitar to a policeman from the government who clearly has talent but no way to express his gifts even if he wanted to. It's the struggle between doing something that truly matters and doing something for the sake of our own individuality. I just wish it cut a little deeper and showcased more of what it was trying to do. But at a little over 70 mins, it was worth an interesting watch.

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.
