Cinematographer Gergely Pohárnok brings a rich and tactile texture to this world, while the film’s sound design wholly transports the viewer into the realm of the mountain. Go to Full Review Lissete Lanuza Sáenz Fangirlish 3 days ago
A smart deconstruction of the friendship between two women and what it means to care for someone very different from you. Go to Full Review David Schwartz In Review Online Sep 30, 2026
[Idda] brilliantly conflates the monumental physicality of the story’s natural backdrop and the intimate nature of the personal drama... The mountain and the woman each seem ready to erupt. Go to Full Review Ankit Jhunjhunwala The Film Stage Sep 29, 2026
C-

7/10
Idda is a haunting and atmospheric drama about friendship, grief, and the memories that refuse to fade. Irene Dionisio finds beauty in the bond between two women, while the Etna becomes a powerful metaphor for emotions buried beneath the surface. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
