What is Flies about?
In Mexico City, a solitary middle-aged woman named Olga rents a spare room to a man whose wife is hospitalized across the street, hoping to cover her own upcoming surgery. When he has to leave town, he quietly leaves his nine-year-old son in her care, and the boy's presence slowly cracks open a life she had sealed shut against grief.

Flies (2026) Review: Loneliness, Interrupted
Flies is Fernando Eimbcke's black-and-white Mexico City drama about a guarded woman left in charge of a stranger's young son, and it earns its tears through restraint.
Yes. It is a tender, precisely observed two-hander for viewers who like quiet dramas, even if its premise of a reluctant carer and a lonely child is familiar.
