Director Juan Pablo González offers a welcome twist to the traditional films set in the idyllic haciendas of yesteryear’s Mexican cinema to tell the story of María García, an iron-willed businesswoman who fights the impending collapse of her tequila factory—located in the Jalisco highlands—in an increasingly globalized industry. Nominated for the Gotham Independent Film Award for Best Feature and anchored by a brilliant performance by Teresa Sánchez—winner of a Special Jury Prize for Acting at Sundance—Dos Estaciones is a love letter to the director’s homeland, as well as a potent tale of resilience. Directed by Juan Pablo González, Mexico, 2022, 97 min. In Spanish with English subtitles.
