The August Virgin

The August Virgin (La virgen de agosto, 2019) is a Spanish comedy from director Jonás Trueba — watch it online on iFILM. In a Madrid emptied out for summer, 33-year-old Eva stays behind. On purpose.

A former actress crashing in a borrowed flat, Eva moves through neighbourhood festivals, reconnects with old friends, meets strangers over long slow evenings. Nothing dramatic happens. That is what the film is about. Lead actress Itsaso Arana carries it almost entirely on presence alone — she watches, listens, reacts, and that is enough. Stream The August Virgin (2019) on iFILM.
