Ema - Comentarios

At its best, Larraín’s film captures the expressiveness of Ema's dancing in its narrative, presenting us with a fascinating character study.

Pablo Larraín’s scorching survey of love and family in modern-day Chile.

...there’s something thrillingly primal about Ema’s scorched-earth approach to tearing down her marriage and rebuilding her life however she damn well pleases.

Pablo Larrain is the great discombobulator of modern cinema, a master of black jokes, a spinner of transgressive tales.

Every shot, every scene, has something very good in it; Larraín’s control is a marvel, and Di Girolamo’s dancing is incidentally brilliant.

The dance is pulsating and fun, well-staged and beautifully shot.

...unravels with serious intensity, with gripping performances and a labyrinthian story that just keeps unfolding.

Ett suggestivt drama, stilfullt och egenartat berättat...

Larraín har bedrevet en æstetiserende udforskning af seksualitet, identitet, eksistensberettigelse...

Larraín’s mesmerizing use of dance is explosive and alive, the driving force of his film that breathes it life.

Raw, beautiful and terrifying.

En unik filmupplevelse...

...pulserer af improviserende frihed, og man lokkes ind i Emas egensindige kraft, billedernes kulørte kraft og den insisterende, latinamerikanske reggaeton, der pumper løs i baggrunden.

...filmens centrala känsla är en sorg som svämmar över alla bräddar.
