You might think Litigante – the word means a lawsuit – is a cold legal drama. Think again, as although this character study focuses on a mother whose whole world is basically imploding, it’s sympathetic, warm, and down to earth. Set in Colombia, we follow Silvia, who is the subject of an investigation at work, while her mother, with whom she has a rocky relationship, is seriously unwell. This emotional film just focuses on what happens in life – and does so with sensitivity. It’s relatable, and even though it’s slow, you will be fully invested by the end of this low-key gem.
