Floating Sunflowers is a 2014 drama film directed by Ana Cristina Barragán. Starring Anna Chlumsky, Francisco Solorzano, and Lynn Cohen, the film tells the story of a young woman who travels to Ecuador to reconnect with her estranged father and discovers a world she never imagined. The film opens with Marie (Anna Chlumsky), a French-American artist, arriving in Ecuador to spend time with her father (Francisco Solorzano), a man she hasn't seen in twenty years. She is greeted by her father's caretaker, Rosa (Lynn Cohen), a no-nonsense woman who isn't afraid to speak her mind.

Marie is initially put off by her father's absence and the rundown state of his property. However, as she spends time with Rosa and explores the surrounding countryside, she begins to understand more about her father's life and his connection to the land.

As Marie gets to know the locals, she is pulled into a world of passion and danger that she never anticipated. She strikes up a friendship with Luis (Andrés Crespo), a young man who dreams of starting a business selling "floating sunflowers," a type of flower that grows in the river.

However, Marie soon realizes that there is more to Luis's business than meets the eye. He is involved in a dangerous scheme with a group of drug dealers, and Marie finds herself drawn deeper into their world.

As she learns more about Luis's situation, Marie also uncovers secrets about her family's past and her father's relationship with Rosa. She realizes that she must confront her own past in order to move forward.

The film is notable for its stunning cinematography, which captures the beauty and danger of the Ecuadorian countryside. The performances are also strong, particularly from Chlumsky, who portrays Marie with a mix of vulnerability and strength.

Overall, Floating Sunflowers is a moving and thought-provoking film about family, reconciliation, and the power of connections that transcend language and culture. It offers a unique glimpse into a world that is rarely seen in mainstream cinema and is sure to leave a lasting impression on audiences.
