I usually check the rating before I decide to watch a movie. In this case the movie was recommended to me by a person I trust and thanks God I decided to watch it despite the rating that some people gave to it. I am glad I did. This is an excellent movie and I can understand some people may have not liked it. I presume those people do not have the slightest idea how a movie that is labelled as "crime" do not have any shooting and still be good. The problem is that it is not a movie about crime, it is a movie about social and cultural differences of people living in the same country.
If you expect to watch action do not waste your time, it is not a movie for you. The plot is heart breaking, the acting is exceptional and the filming is very sober. There are some aspects that are difficult to grasp if you have not lived in a place where Justice is over-ridden by money.

My wife and I watched this movie without great expectation. However, we were really surprised by the plot, from the start until the last stunning revelation. As Argentinians, we found all the set up quite realistic. All actors are very good and their performances were remarkably adequate. The story may be small, but this is a great movie. Actually, the best Argentine movie of the few last years, in our opinion.
This movie is based on real events and that makes the film more sad . The problem with this film is the pacing in my opinion . It too slow and sometimes boring . After the 3/4 of the film it gets faster and the tension increases . This movie is heartbreaking and it just's ... it's really WOW . The acting is amazing every single actor nails the role . If it wasn't that slow this movie could be a masterpiece??
Pearl of Argentine cinema, a fantastic playwright, very well conducted, to intrigue us and that plot twist, and the saddest, which is based on real facts, in fact, of two crimes that were unrelated, but generated an excellent very well produced work, highlighting Cecília and Yanina Ávila (who is a domestic worker and of humble origin), a beautiful, dramatic, sensitive, critical, stupendous film ...
Heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time.
We watched this movie with my family and we all loved it.
I really can't understand the low rating though.
