La caja de Yamasaki is a curious blend of comedy and drama, navigating the complexities of childhood through the eyes of Diego.

Its pacing might feel a bit slow for some, but it allows the audience to fully appreciate the whimsical atmosphere, especially during Diego's encounters with the magician Yamasaki. The practical effects are charmingly simple, lending a handmade quality to the magic that feels both nostalgic and genuine. The performances, particularly from the child actor, bring a unique depth to the narrative, making it distinctive in its exploration of self-discovery.
