My Dearest Señorita

4.8/10 ★★★★★
Movie · 2026
Unaware of her own truth, a sheltered woman’s life transforms through unexpected love and self-discovery.
Adela, a solitary only child from a conservative family, spends her days between the family antique shop and the catechism classes she teaches, marked by her mother’s protectiveness and the silence surrounding her intersex condition, which she is unaware of but which shapes her life. An unexpected and beautiful friendship with a newly arrived priest, the return of a close childhood friend, and the arrival of a woman, Isabel, trigger a chain reaction that takes Adela on a journey of self-discovery, from Pamplona to Madrid, where her identity will need the love and support of others in order to be revealed.
