What people say:
«Karma Shadub is an enchanting film. The overwhelming encounter between a son and his father, as well as between the art forms they master, is like a dizzying dance for the viewer.»
– Jurybegründung Grand Prix de Nyon -
"Even Ramón's film is ultimately a gift to his father. The filmmaker releases Paul with a reconciling gaze, acknowledging that the pain cannot be erased, but manages to let go. Or, in cinematic terms, the parents and their secrets are left to the realm of ambiguity."
