If you loved Mi vida sin mí, try La elegida
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Isabel Coixet, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mi vida sin mí, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La elegida is
A rare indie that treats sexual tension among adults as something other than a midlife crisis in progress. Cultural critic David Kepesh begins an affair with his composed student Consuela, unraveling his carefully curated detachment. The film mistakes repression for depth, but at least the lighting stays moody.
