Review by tomoffel

Xicu is a bit 'limited' young man whose hunting on a mule turns into obsession and has surprising side-effects...

What starts like an obscure comedy with farming flavoured characters develops within minutes to a poetic tragedy. How can a short film display the whole spectra of emotions ? Gonzalo Tapia shows you in a very haunting way. 'Xicu El Topero' is an emotional rollercoaster ride: brilliant and deeply moving.
