The Reconquest
Directed by Jonás Trueba
A tender, introspective meditation on time, memory, and the enduring power of first love, centered on two people reuniting after fifteen years to honor a promise made in youth.
Manuela and Olmo meet in a future as they had promised fifteen years earlier as teenagers, when they lived their first love. Based on this romantic situation, La Reconquista is in fact a film on a quest for time; or about the awareness of time: of time lost and time recovered; about what we remember about ourselves and what we don't remember; about the words, gestures and feelings to which we remain faithful, because they define and compel us today, yesterday and tomorrow.
