Niño

Directed by Alberto Allica

With Lorenzo Taylor Oliveira and Iria del Río

Set against the 2008 financial crisis in Spain, the film centers a young boy’s solo journey into the unknown, looking for answers after witnessing his grandfather on his deathbed. Beyond the abandoned buildings and state of decay that surround his grandparents’ rural home, he finds a heightened sense of life in the natural world, revealing the subtle magic of the weeds, insects, and lizards that cross his path.
