Isabel Coixet’s Tres Adioses Opens in Theaters to Warm Early Reviews

Early notices praise a Rome-set adaptation marked by luminous restraint with standout performances.

Overview

  • The feature debuts on February 6 and stars Alba Rohrwacher alongside Elio Germano and Francesco Carril.
  • Coixet freely adapts Michela Murgia’s posthumous Tres cuencos, retitling the film Tres adioses.
  • The narrative follows Marta after a breakup and a grave diagnosis, emphasizing everyday pleasures and avoiding medical spectacle.
  • Shot largely in Trastevere, the film mixes real locales such as Cambio and Al Biondo Tevere with an invented restaurant inspired by Piatto Romano.
  • Critics commend a luminous, restrained melodrama and naturalistic acting—highlighting Rohrwacher’s rapport with Carril—with La Vanguardia awarding four stars.
