Summer 1993 follows Frida, a six-year-old girl who, after her parents separate, moves to live with relatives in the Catalan countryside. The film observes her adjustments and yearnings with a tender, patient eye, turning intimate, everyday moments into emotional revelations about childhood grief, resilience, and belonging. Carla Simón’s debut blends documentary realism with luminous natural light and restrained storytelling to capture the fragile magic of a formative year.
