LES TOURNESOLS SAUVAGES GIRASOLES SILVESTRES

Jaime Rosales

Spain 2022 106 min Spanish with English subtitles

In Barcelona, 22-year-old Julia is a single mother raising her two children on her own who dreams of freedom and empowerment. Like a sunflower relentlessly tracking the light, she goes on a quest to find the sun under new horizons. 

With sensibility, Jaime Rosales embarks us on the quest of a young single mother, torn between her longing for stability and her determination to fulfill her dreams. Through an elliptic narrative, Wild Flowers creates a flawless, moving atmosphere where nothing looks contrived and everything seems genuine.
