If you loved El Sur, try Dream of Light

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Víctor Erice, and they both carry the cult, foreign gem mood tags. If that's the register that drew you to El Sur, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Dream of Light is

Werner Herzog without the histrionics. A master painter struggles to capture a fleeting vision of a quince tree in sunlight. It's a serene study of artistic process, measured in seasons.
