Nahir

If you read the case file many things happening in the show are simply not true. They want to potrait Nahir far better than she really was. A violent, agressive and cold human. Poor lad was being harrased and even hit several times (not shown) and psicoabused by this girl. Violence has no gender it goes both ways. As another user said on his review, storyline and music was simply awful. I think the actress does a good job though. I hope they reconsider doing a tv series more faithfull and coherent with the real facts and story. Falls too short and miss oportunity to tell a great story with much power.

Great movie, loaded with so many emotions, it makes you ask yourself a lot of questions. Is there a single truth? Is there anyone innocent at all? Or do we all have our own angels and demons?

I liked the way the movie shows different possible versions and points of view. I also liked how they have paid attention to the details and tried to represent everything as close to the reality as possible - the clothes, the words, the dates of the events...

The tempo was a bit slow for my taste, but still good overall. Congratulations to the cast for their performance, they have done very well, especially with the fact that this is a kind of quiet movie, without many dialogues and speech.

Valentina Zenere has done an excellent job with the role of Nahir! This is a complex character with many faces and a mind that is difficult to understand. But Valentina has done well with this challenge, her performance is truly amazing and powerful! She is a very talented actress, and I really can't wait to watch her next projects!

What I think could be better, is that the other characters could have had more time on screen. I'd like to see more of Federico, Jorge Zanzini, the relations between Nahir's parents... But it's OK, I think they just wanted to focus more on Nahir.

Overall, I like the movie "Nahir" and highly recommend it! It's a movie that is worth watching, and definitely needs to be rewatched again a few more times in order to be understood and felt completely.

-The movie goes back and fourth between timelines poorly .

-The music choice was awful and added 0 value to the scenes , dont know if the idea was to make her look cooler or to appeal to the teen audience like it was Riverdale or something.

-I understand creating a show of a real case can be challenging speacilly with the pace of the movie , but this felt so slow and repetitive .

+The whole murder trial was really interesting , it truly felt like a "small town judge" , but sadly those scenes were really short compared to the whole creepy boyfriend scenes.

*Maybe adding something more about other characters , like the victim parents or friends point of view in some of the couple discussions or some background about her family could of been nice.

-All 5-10 minutes referring to her uncle were badly linked to the story and her personality. It just a scene to keep in mind.

I would of loved for this movie to be good , there are so many good real murder/crime stories to be told in latin america , speacially in Argentina.

This is not a common review. The movie plot is an outrage. A "film" (actually just a low budget tv one) with a preposterous and unnaceptable script. The murderer in real life, a psyco, here's just a poor naive girl. Nothing farther from the truth. The people involved should apologize. To lie is to be a bad person. My two cents: there are people who'll do anything for money, it seems. If they really didn't mean no harm, forgiveness is possible, but they must ask for it first. Fernando and his family and friends, the true victims, should be compensated. Awful mistake making such a terrible movie.

The film is loosely based on a real criminal case that became a cause célèbre in Argentina. On December 2017, Fernando Pastorizzo, 20 years old, was found dead near his wrecked motorcycle on a street in Gualeguaychú, Province of Entre Ríos, a medium sized city 230 km north of Buenos Aires. His on/off girlfriend Nahir Galarza, 19, was the last to see him alive and was first interrogated as a witness, then as the principal suspect.

After a series of misleading and contradictory depositions, she confessed to killing Pastorizzo, and was sentenced to life in prison for first degree murder by a panel of three judges (trial by jury is the exception in Argentina). On 2018 she changed her story and the decision was appealed, but one year later it was confirmed by the Superior Court of the province. In 2022 she changed her version of the facts yet again and the case was appealed to the Supreme Court of Argentina that, as of today, June 13, 2024, has not taken a decision.

Out of this material, director Hernán Guerschuny and scriptwriter Sofia Whilhelmi have assembled a solid thriller (some facts and names have been changed or modified). The plot is carried forward at a steady pace, and information is often conveyed with deft touches: short scenes, single phrases or just looks show or suggest the inattention of the judge panel, the rush to convict and the scarce attention to obvious directions of investigation. A masterful short scene tells much about Nahir's relationship with a family member, and perhaps with the family itself. There is also a skillful use of flashbacks; sometimes they refer to the same facts seen (or declared) by different characters. The final twist is not forced and does not solve all doubts (a plus). The is some social comment (the irresponsibility of the press, gender discrimination) but without preaching. First rate acting and cinematography. A film to watch.
