Despite the outstanding production design, beautiful soundtrack and stellar cast, the movie just didn't tell me much. It is not the best Wes Anderson film at all. I hope the next one he makes recovers the level of Tenenbaums or Moonrise Kingdom.

Maixabel
(2021)
Strong political drama about reconciliation based on a true story
12 October 2021
A sensitive exploration of the emotional fallout of terrorism.
Maixabel Lasa was widowed in 2000 when her husband Juan Maria Jauregui, a progressive former politician, was killed by three gunmen while eating lunch with a friend. Eleven years later, she has agreed to meet two of her husband's murderers as part of a short-lived state program for reconciliation.
The true enemy is never the other side, but rather our hatred of it.
