RomanceDrama

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.

VIBE

A wistful, contemplative journey through the echoes of first love. It's a film about the persistent pull of the past and the enduring questions of who we were and who we've become, wrapped in a tender, introspective mood.
