The Enchanted

"The Enchanted" (Els encantats, 2023) is a Spanish drama by director Elena Trapé — watch it online on iFILM. Irene is a divorced woman in her thirties, raising a four-year-old daughter and running out of options. She retreats to the remote mountain village where she grew up, hoping the forests and old legends can do what the city could not.

108 quiet minutes. Laia Costa plays Irene without a word wasted — the performance lives in pauses and half-looks rather than big scenes. If you tend to skip slow European dramas, this one earns its pace: the landscape feels like a presence, and the ending lands without spelling itself out. Stream "The Enchanted" (2023) online on iFILM.
