Inspired in part by the real experiences of Buhagiar's own aunt Rita, the film stars Natascha McElhone as Carmen, a woman in Malta who has spent much of her adult life obeying a patriarchal tradition of serving as a caretaker for her brother after he joined the Roman Catholic priesthood, but who finds herself free to explore her own desires and goals in life as she nears age 50.
Carmen - Film Review
Matthew, awesomefriday.ca
Carmen is a tale of a woman finding her bliss again, of a life rediscovered, and passions rekindled. A lovely, comforting character study that feels like a warm hug (and will make you want to travel). The very definition of a feel-good movie and one to watch when you have the chance.
