A Sort of Family is quite the unsettling ride. It plunges into the murky depths of desire and desperation, where Malena, a middle-class doctor from Buenos Aires, is faced with moral quandaries that pull her in unexpected directions. The pacing is intentionally slow, allowing the tension to build, which gives the viewer time to absorb the heavy atmosphere. The performances, especially that of the lead, carry a weight that feels almost palpable. There's a gritty realism here, with practical effects that enhance the starkness of her journey. The film grapples with themes of motherhood and the lengths one might go to for fulfillment. It's not your typical thriller; it lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.
