On Maria’s fiftieth birthday, her family decides to give her a jigsaw puzzle as a present. Highly delighted and pleasantly surprised, Maria discovers not only does she enjoy doing puzzles, but she is also extremely good at them. When an opportunity to enter and compete for the World Puzzle Tournament appears, Maria’s new passion becomes a testing ground as she struggles to balance her dream and her relationships.
Obsessed by her new hobby, she tells her family a little white lie so that she can train in peace. She bones up on the rules, immerses herself in the world of jigsaw puzzles and, together with her partner contestant, does everything in her power to make their dream a reality and bring the puzzle championship to Argentina.

Writer and director, Pedro Gonzalez-Rubio, does a stunning job of portraying paternal love and the bond between a father and son in the movie, ALAMAR. Natan is a 5-year old boy facing the separation of his parents, Roberta and Jorge. Before Natan and his mother, Roberta, depart for their new home in Rome, Natan will spend a few days with his father, Jorge.
In the crystal clear waters of Banco Chinchorro, off Mexico’s coast and inhabited by fisherman living in dwellings on stilts, Jorge and Natan will form a timeless bond. Their days are filled with meaningful duties of fishing, snorkeling, identifying the reef plants and animals, and survival. Through the responsibilities as a fisherman and the connection with nature, Jorge teaches Natan invaluable lessons about life and heritage. Shot in the style of a documentary, ALAMAR beautifully captures the ties between a father and his son. —Lisa Yamamoto
