La tarea o De cómo la pornografía salvó del tedio y mejoró la economía de la familia Partida

This is an actor´s film, and Hermosillo did his work by directing them in the right path. The camera and photo are just a way of keeping it real most of the time, so the true feelings and force of the film comes from the actor´s performances.

La Tarea is basically entirely shot in one scene. And what a scene. It's steaming with the most frantic (and it looks REAL!!) sex scene I have ever seen. If what you want is something different, try it. This is one of the movies that makes you wonder: If these are not hard core porno actors, how do they do that?

LA TAREA is filmed in real time in a single room and features a total cast of two actors . This is not an epic film by any means . In fact I wouldn`t have actually remembered its broadcast on Channel 4 if it hadn`t been for the fact that the two characters Marcelo and Virginia indulge in a sex session , but what a sex session it is ! It`s not the type of graphic sex you`d see in a hard core porn film but I don`t believe for a moment the actor and actress are NOT really having sex . Maybe that`s the point of the film , the way the scene is shot is rather subtle and it`s left to the audience to make up their own minds , but I don`t think anyone is that good an actor during a love scene

Humberto Hermosillo did a great job not only did he write the story but he directed it. very original, funny, and a great sex scene. a woman has to video tape herself and a man having sex so she hides a camera and invites her ex-boyfriend to help her with the homework. it is shot from a camera under a desk through the entire movie and takes a great twist. it deals a lot with women and their sexual roles in society. Maria Rojo is a great actress with great movies under her belt. even though she doesn't flaunt it she is sexual and sensual throughout although she was in her 40's when she did the movie.

Maybe only the Mexican Wittiness can produce this film. A woman needs to do her homework, a natural and original film. What she does? She makes an appointment with an ex-boyfriend and seduces him while the hidden camera is recording everything. It seems to work but, suddenly he discovers the camera and the story has a dramatic change and an unpredictable end. María Rojo is not a beautiful woman, neither she has a good body, but she has a great "sex-appeal" that can make you see her as a desirable woman and understand José Alonso's behavior.
