The Mole Agent 

Directed by: Maite Alberdi
Chile/USA/Germany/Netherlands/Spain, 2020, 84’
Festivals: Sundance


When a family becomes concerned about their mothers’ well-being in a retirement home, the private investigator who handles the case hires Sergio, an 83-year-old man, who becomes a new resident – and a mole inside the home. Sergio struggles to balance his assignment with becoming increasingly involved in the lives of several residents. A stylish combination of an observational documentary and a spy movie, with sleek camerawork and wonderfully watchable characters.
