Synopsis
With no job and no future, Alex and Cata spend their lives dreaming of the day they can leave their town together. They know they can rely on each other, which helps them through the daily grind. While planning their escape, they enjoy each night out as though it were their last. But they are fragile, like the flight of a dragonfly, suspended in equilibrium.
Reviews
"Luc Knowels creates an atmosphere full of determinism and melancholy in “Dragonflies”, a film in which youth remain condemned to their hometown." — Nana, StyeFeelFree Magazine
"The incredible performances, free-flowing direction, and impressive visuals make “Libélulas” a unique film that deserves a watch from both fans of acting and independent cinema." - Jeff Sparks, Drink in the movies
