The film has a really bad plot and pour acting.

It is an adaptation of a Brazilian book, and I hope that the story make some sense in the book. It is about a family dilemma that just doesn't fit to reality (and its doesn't make it any funnier or pleasing). The character's personality are not tractable and each conversation and behavior sound completely random.

Even though i haven't read the book, it feels s if the plot is just an pour adaptation of the book. There are missing pieces.

I'm not a specialist in acting, but I haven't liked it at all. I don't know why but in many scenes it felt crude and emotionless.

After all, it is a big production. The art, the setting, the actors are beautiful.

Very good...

Hermano prepares for a high-risk climb in Tierra del Fuego, when he finds himself dealing with the pregnancy of Adri, with whom he has lived for 7 years. Even with the prospect of being a father, Hermano decides to follow. What does he seek with such a decision? Escape, redemption or punishment?. Based on the book "Mãos de Cavalo" by Daniel Galera.

I am intrigued by this male potential in rejecting paternity with the simple justification that not being prepared, given that motherhood becomes intrinsic and mandatory, while optional paternity, it's okay that here the wife, 7 years after an abortion, decides on her own. , end with contraceptives, the plot is good, approaches to troubled and/or saturated relationships please me and here we have a somewhat traumatizing flashback to the past about courage/cowardice... Very good...
