Overview

Octavio Landa has always been the rock of his family, so when a diagnosis at 62 leaves him six months, he believes his work is done. Then his daughter texts him a line from a movie he has loved since he was young: the words he meant to say on his own wedding day and never did. Between that unspoken vow and his son’s upcoming wedding, Octavio begins to transform his life. Told through intimate interviews with his family, Un Amor Que Sana is about what happens when the one who holds everyone together finally lets them hold him.

A man looks up thoughtfully beside a brick wall

Close-up of an older man’s eyes and weathered skin

A woman rests her head close to her husband’s in warm lamplight

Close-up of a woman’s eye, filled with tears

A woman sits for an interview in her living room

A woman speaks during an interview at home

A young girl laughs as she runs through a park

A grandfather runs after his granddaughter on the grass

A small boy grins from under a wooden table

A hand reaches toward the sun through branches

Two women smile at a family gathering outdoors

Family members talk together in a sunny courtyard

A silhouette watches home movies projected on a wall

A woman stands alone in a dim living room at dusk

A woman’s silhouette against the low sun

A grey-haired man prays with his eyes closed
