    And here we are again, in the European Film Festival. This year I didn't watch the opening film. But there are still some interesting picks in this edition.

    Of Panos H. Koutras, I've already watched Xenia, a funny queer road trip of two brothers, with some weird parts.

    Primero que todo, gracias a la gente de Un Mundo Feliz porque pude acudir a la premier de esta cinta de terror nacional.

    La quise ver por dos motivos: primero, por ser una cinta de la competencia del Festival de Morelia (no pude evitar notarle parecido en ese sentido con Huesera), y segundo, Harold Torres.

    Aunque se cuece lento,la cinta está buena, y en la etapa final empieza a jugar incluso con lo auditivo y visual. Me resultó eso pesado,…
