The uncertain pacing makes the tension build and dissipate in an odd ebb and flow... But in the film's best moments Graef Marino offers a sly critique of the post-Pinochet Chilean society.

Rated: 2.5/4

Tienes sus buenas escenas y la trama se va desarrollando adecuadamente para no aburrirte. Las actuaciones son buenas y hay momentos que no te dejan ni respirar y te hacen sentir en carne propia lo que siente el protagonista.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

This movie represents all that is Chile quite beautifully--the good, the bad, the ugly, the pathetic, the absurd, and that which is worth being proud of.
