See the film critics are raving about!
"Fantastic... Delightful"
- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
"Tremendously appealing."
"Writer-director Mariana Chenillo displays great sureness of touch behind the camera. She creates fully realized eccentric characters (and) places them in a wryly comic and specific world. Most impressive of all is Chenillo's ability to make universal a very particular experience. That's a talent well worth appreciating."
- Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
"Pure enjoyment."
"It's difficult to convince some people that a small, foreign-language film they've never heard of offers more satisfaction than most of the big weekend releases I've seen lately... but it's true."
- Leonard Maltin, The Huffington Post

Nora's Will is a Mexican Jewish comedy like nothing you've seen before, a truly unique tale about lost faith and eternal love from writer/director Mariana Chenillo.
When Jose’s ex-wife Nora dies right before Passover, Jose (Fernando Lujan) is forced to stay with her body until she can be buried properly. He soon realizes he is part of Nora's plan to bring her family back together for one last Passover feast, leading Jose to reexamine their relationship and rediscover their undying love for each other.
Nora's Will has received rave reviews from critics and audiences all over the country. The film was named Mexico’s Best Picture of the Year, taking home seven Mexican Academy Awards. (Mariana Chenillo is the first female director ever to win Mexico's Best Picture award.)
