Brief thoughts on Abril (2026) Santa Barbara 2026


A divorcing woman is at a crossroads. Her daughter wants to live her father, she isn't sure of what she's going to do as an empty nester or what whe is going to do with a certain cute bartender.

loved this film. There is something about the performances and the characters that just make this film. Before the plot even takes hold you become hooked by the people on screen and you simply want to travel with them. 

What makes the film work narratively is that the film doesn't create a lot of false drama. We don't have lots of ups and downs, or heroes and villains, we simply have people interacting and letting the messiness that occurs between people play out.

What a delight.

Recommended. Search this one out.
