The Cottage

Rudi and Silvia, with their children Martín, Federico and Silvina, escape from the city to spend a few days in their country house. Rudi gets into arguments with the neighborhood landlord. Children wander around the area. Martín likes fire. Fede is scared. One day, the abandoned house in the background suffers an unexpected fire and a dead person appears: a homeless man suffocated by the smoke. The children did something. Something horrible. Now, we will have to see a way to return to the desired calm.

Directed by Silvina Schnicer, The Cottage leans on a strong ensemble — Valentín Salavarrey, Milo Zeus Lis, Emma Cetrángolo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
