ABOUT THE EVENT
Spanish Film Festival in Cambodia / Los Destellos (Glimmers) by Pilar Palomero (2024).
Screening funded by the Embassy of Spain in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar. Part of the first edition of the Spanish Film Festival in Cambodia.
A moving Spanish drama exploring memory, forgiveness, and seeing the past through new eyes.
Isabel’s life turns upside down the day her daughter Madalen asks her to regularly visit Ramón, who is ill. Fifteen years after leaving her ex-husband, a man she now sees as a stranger despite years of marriage, Isabel begins to feel again the resentment she believed she had left behind. But accompanying Ramón during his most vulnerable moments allows her to see their shared history differently and focus on her own life as it is today.
