The latest film from Uruguayan director duo Ana Guevara and Leticia Jorge, Agarrame Fuerte, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of love, resilience, and the profound connections that shape our lives as it navigates the complexities of grief and remembrance.

The story follows 39-year-old Adela as she grapples with the sudden loss of her closest friend, Elena. Amidst the mourners at Elena's funeral, Adela feels detached from the heavy rituals and is struck by the absurdity of bidding farewell to someone so dear. Overwhelmed by shock and the looming emptiness, Adela unexpectedly becomes a time traveler. With nuanced performances and heartfelt storytelling, Agarrame Fuerte invites audiences into a realm where the bonds of friendship transcend both time and space.

The directors express: 'We have always viewed cinema as a means to understand the connections, circumstances, and individuals in our lives. This was our first endeavor to confront a tragic and irreversible event. While we cannot claim to fully comprehend everything, the film captures the grieving process and the longing for catharsis in a surreal yet poignant manner.'

Agarrame Fuerte premiered at the Tribeca Festival, where it garnered one award and one nomination.
