In a near future, Spain has shortage of supplies and the authoritarian government has decided to kill the elderly, the children and pregnant women to control the resources. The couple Nico (Tamar Novas) and his pregnant wife Mia (Anna Castillo) decide to flee to Ireland to request asylum, since they lost their daughter Uma that was killed by the government. They escape with a group of refugees and the bribed fiscal put them inside a container to be transported in a container ship. However, there is an invasion of the container by other escapees and the militia separate the groups and Nico is sent to another container. At a military checkpoint, the militia kills the fugitives but Mia hides on the top of a stack of boxes and is the only survivor. The containers are loaded onto the vessel, but soon a storm drops several containers into the sea. Locked inside, Mia delivers her baby daughter Noa while the level of sea water inside the container rises. She uses the available few resources to survive while the container is sinking. What will Mia do?
"Nowhere (2023)" is a claustrophobic, anguishing and tense Spanish movie that is a good entertainment but cannot be taken seriously. The temperature of the Atlantic Ocean would have killed Mia in a short period. Further, the sea has very few high waves and then looks like a swimming pool. In addition, a government would never kill the children, unless his decision is to end his people. The elderly it could be. But Mia's drama and the way she resolves each situation holds the attention of the viewer. My vote is seven.
