SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved The August Virgin, try these.

The Days to Come poster 01

Movie / 2019 / Drama

The Days to Come

Why this pick

Like The August Virgin, it finds major emotional change in an unhurried present tense, using naturalistic conversations, Barcelona streets, and small social encounters to make uncertainty feel quietly alive.

The Reconquest poster 02

Movie / 2016 / Drama / Romance

The Reconquest

Why this pick

Another Trueba film, it shares the tender Madrid atmosphere, literary yet natural dialogue, and patient attention to two people testing what remains between memory, desire, and the present.

The Maiden and the Spider poster 03

Movie / 2021 / Drama

The Maiden and the Spider

Why this pick

A deceptively small transition becomes a finely observed emotional web: close quarters, glancing encounters, and a playful, unsettled sensitivity to the unspoken shifts between friends and strangers.

The Souvenir poster 04

Movie / 2019 / Drama / Indie / Romance

The Souvenir

Why this pick

For its delicate observational pace and faith in implication: a young woman’s interior life emerges through rooms, conversations, and intervals of silence rather than conventional dramatic explanation.

The Year of the Discovery poster 05

Movie / 2020 / Documentary

The Year of the Discovery

Why this pick

Though more overtly political, its long, lived-in conversations and attention to communal spaces offer a similarly rich sense of Spanish life unfolding through talk, time, and accidental encounters.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

Young Eva makes her decision to stay in Madrid for the month of August an act of faith. She needs to feel things differently and think of summer as a time of opportunity. On days of festivities and verbenas, while events and encounters take place, Eva will discover that she still has time, that an opportunity can still be given.
