On the road . . .
22 Sep 2006
Format:DVD
This wonderful little gem of a road movie follows three characters as they travel from a wide spot in the road on the vast, flat plains of Patagonia in southern Argentina to the port town of San Julián. Made almost entirely with nonprofessional actors, the film is a picaresque sequence of moments in the lives of simple people being their quirky selves. No big adventure or car chases, the story is driven so to speak by an old man's search for a dog, a young mother's appearance on a low-budget TV game show, and a traveling salesman's romantic efforts to impress a storekeeper with just the right birthday cake. If you like little movies about everyday life in its lighter, comic moments, you'll enjoy this one. The DVD includes an informative making-of featurette.

Wonderful
20 Oct 2006
Format:DVD
What a wonderful movie. Three people heading into San Julian for different reasons. Don Justo going out to seek his lost dog, Maria to participate in a wheel-of-fortune TV show and the street-smart Roberto to seek elusive love. I was particularly impressed by Roberto's resourcefulness with the birthday cake and his creatively persuasive powers. It is a wonderful concoction of hope, despair, pain and love.
The movie has been made out of nothing (nada). There are no special effects and no action. A very simple fare that'll make you sit back and take a restock of the complex web we have woven around us and how little it takes to be happy.

Small big beautiful stories
30 May 2006
This is a fantastic Argentine movie that shows life outside Buenos Aires, life in the remote region known as Patagonia. The movie shows different minimal stories, full of beauty, of slowness, of colour. You don't need to know Argentina or Patagonia to enjoy the movie but it helps understand some features or momentos of the film. Especially, life in the country-side. Recommended for anyone who wants to travel to the end of the world and who believes there is something more in life than money and big cities.
