En el nombre del hijo

1 review
10/10

Although unusual, a film that defies many rules, ideas and conventions.

There is something which can easily shock any genuine film admirer. This refers to an iconoclast film maker from Argentina.Our film maker in question is : Jorge Polaco. He is a highly talented yet unknown film maker from Argentina.He has remained unknown as god only knows for what reasons other films from other Argentinian filmmakers have been promoted.This is because his films have not been widely distributed.A unique feature of all his films is their bizarre, outlandish characters and their eccentric behavior. Jorge Polaco is more than an artist too. He is a poet and has contributed a lot to theater also. This is why he is also known to have used a bit of influenced by theater style in his films. This film is about a son confused about his sexual identity. He is over protected by his mother. This film cannot be summed in words. It has to been seen to be believed.
