If you loved Alas, try La ascensión
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 Larisa Shepitko, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Alas, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
slow burn
