Shout by Miguel A. Reina

The Mole Agent 2020

[DokuFest] It's difficult to present this film as a documentary or a fiction. There is an obvious staging in the work entrusted to this octogenarian "spy" in the elderly home. What begins as a comedy turns into one of the moving looks at old age, loneliness, ungrateful sons, abandonment and the passage of time with no compassion. "This life is cruel, after all," says the old woman poet who will thrill us in the end.
