No llores, vuela

A Spanish-Canadian-French drama; A story about a documentary filmmaker accompanying a falconer who is travelling across a frozen landscape to find his mother, a faith healer whom he hasn't seen for many years. This moody, sombre, slow-paced film has a theme about the world lacking humanity. However, it is long-winded, barely inaccessible, recklessly imposing symbols and metaphors in its style. It lacks impetus because of its ethereal meditation and ponderous tone, which come at the expense of character development. It is difficult for the viewer to make an emotional connection with any of the characters when the important parts of their motives only hatch at the end of the film.
