Besides the meaningless jobs and how much lies we gather to make our own version of reality because the society we live in, is all about how great the company's culture is, or how great our work is, when in reality we are mostly often worker bees, we are not unique, in the aspect of doing something that can't be done by the majority. The monotonous jobs and repetitive script which predicts our lives and we think all this have a meaning, all these years we did something but it's.. just a way to pay the bills, nothing more attached to it. Another subject that it tackled was, that older generations can't really accept the ways of younger generations, it's a foreign concept for them but it doesn't mean that we just discard them, we still have to help them, understand that they are wired like that, we can help them in our own way. It's a sad story, depicting the state of the world, built on lies we ourselves crafted.
I had just watched "I am no longer here" another Latin film directed by Fernando Frías, and I was very curious to see others. I came about this movie. With only two actors and one setting, there is not much you can focus on other than miserable job both Nin and Senior Leno are accustom too. Personally I am not one to be philosophical or Symbolic about movies, but I think this film was deep and rich in hidden meanings about the workplace, self ignorance and Truth. When you don't think about what your watching, this movie can become boring.
My wife I found this movie by chance on Netflix and after we checked it had a good score at IMDB, we decided to give it a chance.
Although the movie is slow paced, the cleaver dynamics between the two main characters and the very good photography makes it a very enjoyable experience. It's at the same time unpretentious and witty.
I truly recommend this movie!

It has a good production quality and the dynamics between the two protagonists is quite good.
