Our take

Poet, writer, and the defiant voice of a new generation of women: Rosario Castellanos transformed Mexican literature and this luminous portrait tells that vital story. Director Natalia Beristain captures the tumult of a love affair and the risks that emerge when confronting the patriarchy.
