In the Summers

Feature Film



Siblings Violeta and Eva live with their mother, but travel every summer to New Mexico to spend time with their loving but unpredictable father in this moving drama that follows them from adolescence to adulthood.


This powerful and deeply personal directorial debut from Alessandra Lacorazza offers a nuanced study of young people questioning their place within their families, their communities, and their identities. Winner of the US Dramatic Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, In The Summers proves both an emotional capsule of growing up within a fragmented family and a love letter to the resilience needed to survive.
