Caotica Ana

The 2007 film of Julio Medem, the director of my favourite Lucia y el Sexo.

Ana is a beautiful girl living with her German father at Ibiza island in a cave, painting her colourful paintings and selling them to tourists. One day Justine occurs and offers Ana new life in Madrid, in a community of young artists, where she would get some art classes.



There Ana starts completely new life, without her beloved father, whom she keeps writing letters. She meets Linda, who becomes her best friend, and Said, her first love. One night she gets through a spiritual experience of her past life and speaks with Said in fluent Arabic. Next morning Said disappears and Ana starts to have the regular hypnosis with Ango, but she keeps refusing to see herself on the recordings which Linda makes from the sessions.

Slowly she understands what is inside her, but the next meeting with Said reveals the shocking fact and she looses him again. In the end she is able to live together with all the women inside her and use it...



Caotica Ana has some naivity, boring parts, unfinished relations and personnages as if just to fill some gaps, few scenes seem to be there just to add some more minutes to a whole movie. Caotica Ana has also nice shots, good camera, colourful authentic paintings of Medem's dead sister Ana, pretty and pretty good actors, some good scenes.

Not a bad movie, but Lucia still wins completely for me...
