Mamá, Mamá, Mamá
editMamá, Mamá, Mamá is the debut feature from Argentine director Sol Berruezo Pichon-Rivière based on her own screenplay, which was shown in the 2020 edition of the Berlin International Film Festival.[1] The movie stars Agustina Milstein, Chloé Cherchyk, Camila Zolezzi, Matilde Creimer Chiabrando and Siumara Castillo.
Plot
editA veil of sadness lies over the oppressively hot summer days in Buenos Aires. Cleo dives into daydreams with her cousins, the girls share secret signs and rituals. Flowing gently, in impressionistic images, the empty space that the death of Cleo's sister has left in the family is poetically encircled. [2]

Commentary
editParaná Sendrós in Ámbito Financiero wrote of the film: "Delicate, suggestive, barely sixty five minutes long, this little play weaves together the experiences of four girls during two very special days, following a misfortune whose details we will understand little by little... two men who are putting up the pool fence... without intervening, they watch what is happening." [3]
