\u201cThis autobiographical debut from 32-year-old Spanish film-maker Carla Sim\u00f3n is a jewel. It is entirely beguiling \u2013 complex and simple at the same time. It is also very moving.\u201d The Guardian<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This enchanting debut feature follows a summer in the life of six-year-old Frida, sent away from the city to live with relatives, deep in the Catalan countryside. With subtlety, warmth and great wisdom, Summer 1993<\/i> explores the way children articulate grief and how happiness and mourning can coincide.<\/p>\n

\n
\u201cthe most naturalistic and authentic cinema scenes you\u2019ll see all year. \u2026 a heart-wrenching triumph that gives full dues to the complexity of childhood trauma, as well as human fallibility.\u201d Independent<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
