A young girl watches blankly as someone lights candles in front of her
Tótem, dir. Lila Avilés, Mexico / Denmark / France 2023, Spanish with English subtitles, 95 min., 12A

Sol, a seven-year-old girl goes to her grandfather’s house, where over the course of a long day, family and friends meet for a dual ritual: it is the birthday of Sol’s father Tona, but as it will likely be his last, it is also a farewell ceremony. The second feature from Lila Avilés, after her film The Chambermaid.
