A drama that sometimes can be mistaken for reality. [Full review in Spanish]

Rating: 7/10 --
Gently moving with raw performances by Geraldine Chaplin and Yanet Mojica and a quietly powerful and haunting ending that compensate for lack of depth in the screenplay.

It respects and plumbs the feelings of all three main characters while surfacing the economic, ethnic, cultural, and gender power imbalances in their relationships.

Eye for Film
Playing out against a dreamy Caribbean backdrop, Sand Dollars is indeed about dreams, unpicking those of a gracefully aging lady and her young lover with a trembling delicacy and attentiveness.

Hollywood Reporter
Ms. Chaplin, in one of her most touching screen performances, imbues Anne with a world-weary melancholy that makes your heart sink.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Every afternoon Noeli (Yanet Mojica), a young Dominican girl, goes to the beaches at Las Terrenas with her boyfriend to look for ways to make a living at the expense of the tourists who wander the beach. Noeli has a steady client, a mature French woman who has found an ideal refuge on the island in which she plans to spend her last years. Noeli's boyfriend feigns to be her brother, and he outlines a plan in which Noeli travels to Paris with the old lady and sends him money every month. For Noeli, the relationship with the old lady is one of convenience, but the feelings become more intense as the departure date draws closer. Blu-ray features surround sound and comes in Spanish with English subtitles.
