La Tirisia (Variety Review)

A major theme of recent Latin American cinema — the erosion of the family caused by a parent leaving to work elsewhere in an endless chain of abandonment — assumes archetypal, quasi-mythical dimensions in Jorge Perez Solano’s “La tirisia.” An exemplar of flourishing Mexican cinema, this slow-building, powerful film, told in imagistic pantomime, could lure arthouse auds beyond the fest circuit.
