About
(Francisca Alegría, Chile, France, US & Germany, 2022, 93 min, in Spanish with English subtitles)

Official Selection: Sundance Film Festival

A choir of creatures introduces a world delicately constructed by fantasy, mystery, and magical realism in Francisca Alegrías poignant debut feature. It begins in a river in the south of Chile where fish are dying due to pollution from a nearby factory. Amid their floating bodies, long-deceased Magdalena (Mia Maestro, Frida, The Motorcycle Diaries) bubbles up to the surface gasping for air, bringing with her old wounds and a wave of family secrets. This shocking return sends her widowed husband into turmoil and prompts their daughter Cecilia to return home to the familys dairy farm with her own children. Magdalenas presence reverberates among her family, instigating fits of laughter and despair in equal measure with all but Cecilias eldest child, who finds much-needed comfort in their grandmothers love and unconditional understanding during a time of transition.

A lyrical rumination on family, nature, renewal, and resurrection, The Cow Who Sang a Song Into the Future is an ambitious proposal for acceptance and healing, suggesting that the dead return when they are most needed.

Hauntingly moving and hopeful a folkloric tale that uses magical realism as a way to connect the intimate story of a family suffering from generational trauma with a timely environmentalist fable.  IndieWire

A beautifully eerie and resonant tale about motherhood and the natural world solidly grounded, teeming with thought-provoking ideas, wonderfully atmospheric, and often visually striking.  Screen Daily

Accessibility

Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter. The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject! If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at maria@nwfilmforum.org
