“u0026#39;Hierrou0026#39; is a suspenseful film about a woman whose young son disappears while on a ferry underway to an island off the coast of Spain. She starts a desperate search on the rather desolate island with bare rock and sparse vegetation, with a few reclusive and unhelpful people staying in caravans. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis story cleverly links with the drama of another childu0026#39;s disappearance after a car crash, a few years earlier.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a well-crafted film with excellent acting, and cinematography. At times it seems a bit too sentimental, but given the subject matter, it is hard not to get emotionally involved. A film worth watching. 7/10.”
