If you loved Mi vida sin mí, try Elisa y Marcela
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, outsider, 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.
