...over this movie is the mystery of other people, symbolised by the unknown, hidden past. Uneasy discovery is the subject: very Proustian.
If you are interested in action, pace, fancy shots, virtuoso transitions, and all the shenanigans that fascinate a certain segment of the film_BUFF_ "community", forget it. There is an almost Zen minimalism to the dramaturgy of this film: precisely like a South American Summer siesta. The Gothic element comes almost as an anticlimax, so perfectly is the mystery evoked. We might prefer not to discover, then? The protagonist, at the end, chooses to perpetuate her enigmas. Good for her. "The hacienda is not for sale." An outstanding Latin-American work of art.
