SILVER

[LEJOS DEL SENTIDO]

After contacting a virus at the age of three, Liliana was later diagnosed with mental illness, and has lived most of her life with borderline personally disorder. She has been in and out of treatment centers but finds solace in her family and her "only friend" Carlos, who is living with schizophrenia. In her feature directorial debut, cinematographer Olivia Luengas turns the camera on her sister for an intimate and personal story that is both harrowing and heartfelt. Official Selection, 2018 Guadalajara International Film Festival. DIR/SCR/PROD Olivia Luengas; PROD Odín Acosta Ascencio. Mexico, 2018, color, 90 min. In Spanish with English subtitles. NOT RATED
