Mariana's Room (2025)
La Chambre de Mariana
During the bleakest moments of World War II, Yulia and her son, Hugo, flee a Ukrainian ghetto. To protect him, Yulia places Hugo in the care of her friend Mariana, a sex worker residing in a brothel. Hidden within a closet, Hugo is mostly isolated from the world, his mind weaving fantasies and phantoms in the absence of reality. Yet, Mariana gradually draws him out of his confinement, unveiling a broader world and reshaping his life. This poignant tale explores the resilience of innocence amidst the shadows of war.
