Albert Serra’s Sixteen Moments from My Life will perhaps go down as a minor addition to the director’s corpus, but it’s nothing if not a continuation of his career-long project of finding ways to capture flickers of reality within the framework of cinema, and vice-versa.

Death had long haunted his cinema, a burgeoning oeuvre littered with acts of […]
