David, a young middle-class Jewish man--corpulent, homosexual and afraid of flying--returns to Buenos Aires from Europe for the funeral of his uncle. On his return, David learns that his mother has decided to disconnect his father's respirator, the only thing that has kept him alive for years. David will oscillate between living in close quarters with his mother, alienated by the pain of the imminent loss of her husband, and a voracity to fill his existential anguish, occupying his hours learning to drive, seeking low-cost medical treatments, and trying to have sex with any man who shows him a little attention.

Carlos Aguilar RogerEbert.com Said’s finely calibrated writing produces situations that organically and succinctly flesh out the interpersonal dynamics in his family. Rated: 3/4 May 2, 2025 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Undercooked, dull and anemic. Pedro Almodovar could probably take the premise and turn it into a much more lively, bold, witty, funny and poignant experience. May 2, 2025 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall This is a warm, humane little film in which not much happens, but the interaction reveals enjoyable angles to the characters. Rated: 3.5/5 May 1, 2025 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Quirky and meandering drama. Rated: B Apr 23, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com While the mechanics of Said’s narrative are arguably familiar, it’s an interesting dissection of identities. Rated: 3/5 Mar 7, 2025 Full Review Pablo O. Scholz Clarín ... David's character is at times hilariously insufferable. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/4 Nov 15, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
