Vitalina Varela follows a Cape Verdean woman piecing together her late husband's secret life in Lisbon through the scant physical traces he left behind, with Vitalina Varela, a non professional actress, giving a performance drawn from her own real life. The film won both the top prize, the Golden Leopard, and Best Actress at the 2019 Locarno Film Festival, in a competition presided over by jury president Catherine Breillat. Who it's for: fans of Pedro Costa's slow cinema and his approach of blending non professional actors with real life stories. Who it's not for: viewers wanting conventional pacing and a clear plot, since the film is built almost entirely on atmosphere and silence.
