Review
"Director/co-writer Jayro Bustamante deserves credit for delving into the horrors of genocide, the way the impact of it lingers across generations, and the mindset that allows those who perpetrated it to go into denial. La Llorona has a seriousness of purpose that marks it as an ambitious film. Cinematographer Nicolas Wong provides a gloomy, atmospheric look that is darkly beautiful. The effect is powerful in certain scenes, particularly the courtroom sequence where hostile onlookers loom ominously behind Enrique as he awaits his verdict." - Mike McGranaghan, The Aisle Seat
