Speaking to ADN, Amara said that “in this international film I think I have the character closest to me, you know, that I have ever done, because no one asks me to be anything else. It’s as if I were Chilean and we accept it in this world. And that in a country where I think we are still working to diversify and see more representation on the screen. “I think it’s something very innovative.”.
Some reputable journalists have already seen the film and given their reviews. For example, Collider gave the film a 7 out of 10, summing up that “although the film sometimes resorts too much to tropes, The Mother and the Bear ultimately emerges as a comedic and lighthearted journey of a woman going through a phase of self-discovery in her 50s.”
