While it provides plenty of food for thought, for large stretches it's dramatically defunct, with paper-thin characters playing soap opera roles.

Rating: 4.5/5 --
With what is perhaps his best film so far, [director Ernesto Contreras] also creates an impeccable film with a powerful love story that shows the great technical and intellectual capacity of Mexican cinema. [Full review in Spanish]

It's thrilling to see such an original, mature story seek to fill its big heart with poetry.

Poetic Mexican film raises philosophical questions about what is lost when a language - and by extension, our elders' memory - is allowed to fade away unpreserved.

Rating: 1.5/4 --
Beyond the fact that the story has some originality in the cultural context of the film, the truth is that the movie becomes repetitive.

Cine Vértigo
Languages have magic - dead or dying ones most of all - and some of that sorcery has made it onto the screen in the evocatively titled Mexican feature "I Dream in Another Language."

Rating: 8.89/10 --
Haunting, engrossing, and poetic with mesmerizing, beautifully-shot scenery reminiscent of the films of Carlos Reygadas.

Description by OLDIES.com:
An indigenous language is in peril as its last two speakers, Evaristo and Isauro, had a quarrel in the past and haven't spoken to each other in over fifty years. Martín, a young linguist, will undertake the challenge to bring the old friends back together and convince them to once again talk to each other, all so he can obtain a recorded registration of the language and study it. However, hidden in the past, in the heart of the jungle, lies a secret concealed by the language that makes it difficult to believe that the heart of Zikril will beat once again.
