After a devastating childhood incident, Corina (Naian González Norvind, NEW ORDER) has carefully crafted her quiet life to fit in a few safe square blocks. Only occasionally leaving the confines of the Guadalajara apartment she shares with her similarly agoraphobic mother, Corina makes the occasional stop at the grocer on the way to her job at a nearby publishing house. When the acclaimed author of their popular book series ruins the long-awaited finale, Corina takes a stab at writing her own happy ending. When it ends up in her bosses’ hands, her entire existence is thrown off its axis. To save her job and conquer her fears, she will need the help of the friendly new grocer (Cristo Fernández, TED LASSO) to reach the author’s reclusive compound. Directed with idiosyncratic aplomb by first-time feature filmmaker Urzula Barba Hopfner, this playful charmer (think AMÉLIE with a distinctly Mexican twist) won the Audience Award at this year’s SXSW Film Festival.
