alexanderwehrendt's rating
There are definitely weaker episodes, some just not utilising animation, nor story, in an artistic and interesting way, especially paling, when compared directly to the other gems in this series.
Some of these films are just phenomenal, on a story level, having good characters, and character dinamics, while telling and interesting story, though the type varies drastically from episode to episode, other films shining mainly, yet not exclusively, in their way of showing us what animation and an artist vision can achieve; the episode "Jibaro" being for me a prime example of a beautiful story, nearly mythological, while having visuals which just keep one hypnotized.
This series gives the creators a chance to fully utilise the format of short stories, as they are best approached differently from longer films, focussing on an intriguing narrative, in which one must not necessarily endulge, and letting the visual medium shine to its brightest potential.
I highly recommend this series to everyone, yet especially those of you that like different and not so tipical stories, as well as visual style, as style can definitely be substance.

Even tough I do not agree with some directive choices, especially the ending, which I find to happy and inconsequencial for such an event, yet understanding why it was taken, I have naught to critique on a deeper level, which has nothing to do with my personal preferences.
Frrom a visual point of view, this film is gorgeous, whilst also working beautifully with classic tango, giving the themes a great wrap-up, taking classic argentine themes, yet never over-doing it.
Having not lived the events, yet knowing this country, I cannot and shall not judge the historical accuracy, especially as this aspect is always one of the most debated and.difficult ones, yet this film properly and believingly portrays the desperate state of the people.
Apart from all of this, I truly find that the quantity of characters was very well managed, as well as the length of this film, rather of acceseable length, yet taking its time wherever necessary.
