MY MEXICAN BRETZEL uses home movies and fleeting moments of sound to tell the story of Vivian Barrett, a wealthy Swiss woman, and her husband, Léon, a WWII pilot-turned-entrepreneur whose hearing was partly lost in a plane accident. Years of their lives are chronicled from the 40s through 60s, from Le Mans to Hawaïi. Vulnerability, loss, and belief are explored in an indulgently cinematic fashion.

Press Quotes

Nuria Giménez gives a new meaning to the found-footage genre and film language in general.

     —Alejandro Meroi, Art House Street

If you've ever been in your feelings about #tbt, this is a movie for you.

     —Mark Asch, The Film Stage

A wonderful piece of movie magic.

     —Steve Kopian, Unseen Films

A bizarrely fascinating hybrid of fiction and documentary dealing with the addition (stories built on top of other stories) and subtraction (text instead of audio, unsaid instead of said) of language.

     —Tommaso Tocci, Ioncinema
