Something You Said Last Night

Vacationing with the family can be one of the biggest challenges when you are still in the process of finding your autonomy. This is the case for Ren, an aspiring writer in her twenties who has been recently fired from her job and decides to spend a few days with her sister and her parents at a lake house. Ren’s inner world is constantly disturbed by outside forces and characters who don’t see her for who she is. This debut film by Luis De Filippis stands out for her work directing actors and writing. It is a film that is limited to a small and sometimes claustrophobic physical space, but that investigates the vast complexities of intra-family relationships from a trans perspective. It will remain fresh in the audience’s mind for many years to come.
