Mariana Haragushiku has good moments, though not fully even

What stood out to me about Traces of Love (2024) was how Mariana Haragushiku handled the role. It supports the film well enough, though it rarely changes the temperature of a scene. I appreciated the intention more than every individual moment. A few scenes feel specific and grounded, while others fall back on familiar choices. The performance has a clear idea behind it, but the execution is not equally strong throughout. There is some texture here, but I wanted a little more surprise. My reaction is mainly about this specific film, not a judgement on the performer overall.
