Lets start with the good parts...
Okay! I'm finished!
Now the bad parts : the movie has no sense at all! There is no reason watching it. The idea of the story is not bad but the execution in my opinion is terrible... You wait the whole movie for something to happen and during the last scene you wish it's not gonna be the last scene... and yet IT IS! The only hope that you have that this movie will give you something is gone right there on the spot, together with the endind titles. Nothing intresting at all.
I honestly feel bad for the time i spent watching this... Poor poor poor... Don't waste your time :)

Sergio is dealing with financial problems and a weakened state of health. In a stroke of fate, he has the opportunity to protect his family. The price? His permanent absence.
I miss Argentine cinema. It's been a while since I watched any of the Argentine films, which I love. I'm catching up with this wonderful film, a mix of dramatic mystery, which enchants and hypnotizes us despite its slow pace, which doesn't compromise the development or our interest in the plot, which takes shape as it progresses, with a good ending, focused and captivating. However, a dose of surprise and unpredictability would have given it more points...

Not really a thriller but a drama, convincing drama but, yes, rather unbelievable. However, acting and directing are good and let us forget many unlikely scenes and situations. I doubt this movie was ever released in movie theaters, or in only a few ones. I don't know any of the actors, and the production design, overall atmosphere, were quite good enough for my taste. The ending is also worth the watch, and justifies to endure the whole film. Not a Hollywood like plot, that's the most important. Too many non American pictures try to imitate the US fashion. This is a sad story, not a super hero tale.
They did not do a good job of convincing us that the married couple was close. We see very little of their relationship before the big stuff happens. I don't think they told us what product the family company made. Why make them Jewish? They didn't sell the Jewish angle. I didn't believe it.
There is a large passage of time during which we see very little of what happens in people's lives. Was the grey beard meant as a disguise because the guy was planning to resurface, or just to show the passage of time? Couldn't he have trimmed it to look less homeless? As people mentioned, the women didn't look older.
I did feel the emotions of the main characters. That much was good. I was actually ok with the ending too. I know a lot of people hated it.
The kind of guy who let himself get into such debt, kept it from his family, and made the other decisions he made, would probably not know what to feel or do when facing the consequences of his actions. He waffled, caused more pain, and failed again.

Very good movie, with great twists during the movie.
At first I was surprised by the events that the main character was having to do to continue his life.
Again I was surprised but this time not much (kind of expected) in the middle of the movie I believe he took desperate attitudes, but it was due to the situation he got into, but.... He could have done better in other decisions he made!
Already finishing the movie, he tried to help himself and help the family, but... I can't say lol, but the end of the movie was "emotional", summing up a good movie in the category he is in. I just thought I could have told you better about my children's lives.
