- TriviaAfter winning the Golden Globe for best non-English language film, fellow actor Peter Lanzani revealed that Ricardo Darín used his "lucky charm" for awards ceremonies and told the cast and crew to think, "Don't worry, we're not going to win, we have no chance, we're losers, be calm, we won't have to make a speech, we won't win."

Featured review
I've been looking forward to this film for a long time, and it doesn't disappoint at all. It's the kind of movie where the performances carry all the weight. Ricardo Darin as always was superb, but also Alejandra Flechner shines as the prosecutor's wife.
While the film has the familiar structure of a trial movie, everything is executed flawlessly.
Merits aside, the whole technical section, from minute zero, is absolutely surprising, the budget is noticeable. I recommend watching it on the big screen, it is unmissable to see the audience's reaction throughout the film. It'll probably be on of the five nominees at the Oscar´s for best international film.
