With Cannes now wrapped up, the next film festival on our radar is Tribeca, which runs its 23rd edition from June 5 to 16. One film we’re looking forward to is Don’t You Let Me Go (Agárrame fuerte), the most recent feature film by the celebrated Uruguayan directorial duo of Ana Guevara and Leticia Jorge (So Much Water), which will have its world premiere in the International Narrative Competition.
Featuring a predominantly female cast and crew, Don’t You Let Me Go follows Adela, 39, who is confronted with the sudden loss of her best friend, Elena.
