Tras su paso por el #73SSIFF hoy se estrena MASPALOMAS, un insólito Coming-of-age en la tercera edad que, más que mostrar un camino de ida, nos enseña uno de vuelta. No es perfecta pero sí muy estimulante en su novedad. Aquí unas palabras sobre ella: www.otroscineseuropa.com/sansebastian...
#SanSebastián2025: Crítica de “Maspalomas”, de Aitor Arregi y José Mari Goenaga - Otros Cines Europa
En una estimulante variación sobre los códigos del cine “queer”, lo nuevo del colectivo Moriarti retrata el regreso a la heteronorma de alguien que ya creía tenerlo superado.

Awarded in Goa and Hong Kong as WIP, Indian Tribeny Rai presents her debut Shape of Momo at #Busan2025 Vision & #SanSebastian2025 ND for Celluloïd Dreams. The return of a young woman to a village in the Himalayas provokes reflections on the place of women. The setting is authentic, that's about all.

2nd of 14 fiction films not invited to Cannes, Two Pianos by French Arnaud Desplechin is being launched at #TIFF50 Gala and then #Sansebastian2025 comp for Goodfellas. Even with a musical setting, the melodrama seems dated, parodic. Neither Lyon nor the tedious handheld camera are ever interesting.

Discovered in 2002 Toronto and at Cannes UCR, Hungarian György Pálfi presents his ninth film at #TIFF50 Platform and #Sansebastian2025 Zabaltegui for Lucky Number. Always resolutely high concept, the film follows the (Greek) odyssey of a black hen. Who is it aimed at? Late-night ZDF Arte viewers.

Next Step, Locarno & FidLab project, Aro Berria by Spanish director Irati Gorostidi is launched at #SanSebastian2025 ND. While the political reconstruction is moving, community life is then weighed down by long, exhausting and counterproductive group scenes. A pity.

2001 Special Jury Prize here, the unconventional documentary filmmaker José Luis Guerin returns with Good Valley Stories to #SanSebastian2025 comp for Shellac. At least 30 to 40 minutes too long and extremely cheaply made, it's difficult to find it interesting unless you're from the neighbourhood.

A discreet regular at major festivals, Belgian Joachim Lafosse returns to #SanSebastian2025 with Six Days in Spring for Losange. A short, implausible pretext for a minor film, but still with enough cinema to make the experience interesting. Gently disappointing, saved by Eye Haïdara, of course.

Chinese editor Zhang Zhongchen's debut won an award at First without ever travelling. Produced by Midi Z, Nighttime Sounds is launched at #SanSebastian2025 ND. Although the predominantly handheld camera work is exhausting, the strange encounter between these two girls still exudes a rough charm.

Awarded here in 2000 for his debut, Spain's Alberto Rodriguez returns to #SanSebastian2025 comp with his ninth film, Los Tigres, for Film Factory. An appealing subject, industrial divers, developed in a heavy-handed manner into drug dealing. Beautiful images, promising fast pace, but too light.
September 20, 2025 at 8:04 PM
Under-exposed with his 2013 debut, Canarian José Alayón launches his second film Dance of the Living at #SanSebastian2025 New Directors for Bendita. A beautiful family immersion into the Canarian wrestling tradition filmed in S16 like tribal dances. Simple, not so predictable and quite captivating.
September 19, 2025 at 8:34 PM
2012 Berlinale Forum with his promising debut, Olmo Omerzu, a Slovenian-born FAMU graduate, has since been a regular at Karlovy Vary. He presents Ungrateful Beings at #SanSebastian2025 comp for Cercamon. After a clumsy first half, the bilingual film evolves into a rather silly family drama.
September 22, 2025 at 1:53 PM
After two shorts in Clermont, Taiwanese Tsao Shih-Han presents his debut Before the Bright Day at #SanSebastian2025 ND for Maboroshi. This beautiful coming-of-age set in 1996 pays tribute to the master Edward Yang. The technique is exquisite, and it is clearly the best Taiwanese film seen this year.

After last year's heavyweight Marco at Orizzonti, Spaniards Jose Mari Goenaga & Aitor Arregi present Maspalomas at #SanSebastian2025 comp for Film Factory. The subject matter is courageous, the first part unexpected. A shame that the rest of the film remains so tame, only suitable for LGBT festivals
September 21, 2025 at 8:31 PM
After a short film in Berlin and a debut in Goteborg and Wroclaw, Swedish director John Skoog presents Redoubt at #SanSebastian2025 ND for Coproduction Office. The b&w images are striking, but the narrative struggles to hold on for more than 20 minutes. Ambitious but hollow and old-fashioned.
September 24, 2025 at 12:23 PM
Winner of the Youth Jury Award here in 2005 and Best Basque Film in 2015, Asier Altuna returns to #SanSebastian2025 OoC with Karmele. A gentle and rare historical adaptation, soberly ambitious, a pleasant surprise that could have deserved a major award to help reach a wider international audience.
September 22, 2025 at 5:32 PM
Discovered at Berlinale Panorama with her debut Lullaby, Basque Alauda Ruiz de Azúa went on to make Querer tv-series before her third film Sundays at #SanSebastian2025 comp for Le Pacte. Heavily developed and over-edited, the film could have been made 10 or 20 years ago. Schematic, for OoC.
