  • nice, loved the story of this old woman and her extremely challenging life. the subtitles worked well, especially changing the color when it was hard to see them. some dropshadow on the text might help make them even more readable.

    i also liked the profile shots of her on the bus, was really able to connect with her on the waiting in the rain shot.

    great work tania!

    ps: what happened to the credits?

  • Wow, thanks for the feedback, I just realized the credits were cut off.
    I will make a new file and try the drop shadows on the subtitles.
    I really appreciate your feedback guys, Thanks !!

  • I really enjoyed the narrative of this piece. I mean having the daughter talking about the mother, while you´re showing the mother. We don´t usually think of Uruguay as a country were people emigrate from...unlike Mexico or Colombia, so that´s cool too. Nice job! By the way if you´re interested in stories about immigrants I recommend a documentary called "I for India", it came out last year, I saw it in London, maybe its already in the US.
