Treat your inner teenager to this deceptively slight, piquant reverie about a mother and her on-the-cusp-of-manhood boy-child, courtesy of Fernando Eimbcke, Mexican master of the slow-moving mumblescape, whose earlier features, Duck Season (2004) and Lake Tahoe (2008), were equally (if differently) winning, drowsily subtle investigations of adolescencia.
But wait! As if that weren’t enough, Club Sandwich will be preceded by Eimbcke’s very brief (five minute) collaboration with So Yong Kim, Carta 2 (Letter 2), and followed by a discussion with Eimbcke and producer Christian Valdelièvre. Punch me in the face, I’m dreaming.
