Latitude

About This Movie

Latitude is an intimate dive into family dynamics, a kind of slow burn that really lets the tension simmer. The film’s tone is heavy with nostalgia and unresolved issues, making you feel the weight of José's return to his family home. Cornet does a great job with pacing, allowing moments of silence to linger, which amplifies the emotional stakes. The performances, especially from the leads, are raw and authentic, capturing the frailty of familial love and the burden of past grievances. It’s not flashy, but that’s what makes it distinctive; there are no big effects or grand gestures—just solid storytelling rooted in reality. You can almost feel the air in that house thick with history and unspoken words.

Emphasis on family dynamics · Strong character-driven narrative · Atmospheric and low-key style
