Our take

Before the success of Gloria and A Fantastic Woman, Sebastián Lelio presented his film Christmas in Cannes at the 2009 Directors’ Fortnight. A curious encounter leads to a strange love triangle in this mysterious, finely tuned drama, that slowly unravels within the darkness of an abandoned house.
