Audience Member One of the greatest film in the argentinean cinema. Leonardo Favio first film show a crude and beautiful portrait of the lower class so realistic that can be compared to Truffaut's les 400 coups and the italian neorealism. With amateur actors and a narrow budget Leonardo Favio brings one of the greatest movie of all time with astonishing photography, music, perfonmances and script. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member While initially seeming a bit derivative of 400 Blows, this soon distinguished itself with interesting use of locale and some very moving comment upon the plight of children under fascism. The institutional environment is used well, with long corridors and high ceilings, and when it does move outdoors the isolation is still conveyed well through less literal means. Internalized pressures are made more palpable with sad circumstance, and the eventual break is handled well with a final shot that does not linger.
