Opposing impulses - sweet and sinister - sometimes threaten to break the film apart, but Garcia's performance always pulls the two halves back together. Go to Full Review

It all comes down to a mournful gaze, and the simmering rage visible just beneath it. Go to Full Review

One of those films where your satisfaction will be measured in terms of whether you found its hero fully realized as a character. Go to Full Review

6/10
A film that, with a naturalistic style, has noble intentions to dialogue with topics such as childhood, frustration and loneliness, but at times it becomes tepid and not very touching. [Full reveiw in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Justin V @jvieth30 07/16/2024 a beautiful story, filmed in a beautiful location about how childhood trauma can dominate your life as an adult. very human. very sad. all around very good. See more R 9 01/04/2024 Pretty good, I was into 'Nobody Knows I'm Here'. I wouldn't class it as anything spectacular, though I thought it did a solid job at bringing its story to life. There's a strong lead performance from Jorge Garcia as Memo; a character that kept giving me Quasimodo of 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' vibes, but perhaps that's just a lazy comparison on my part. He has a nice musical number too. All in all, though not perfect or anything close, this produced what I wanted it to so I'm personally happy with it. See more Andrea C 12/11/2023 Dramma che tocca in maniera tanto delicata quanto potente una tematica sottovalutata come il lato oscuro della celebrità. La sceneggiatura, fatta di poche sequenze importanti e di numerosi momenti di lenta quiete in cui il protagonista è sprofondato nella solitudine forzata dopo il tragico evento, riesce ad incanalare l'attenzione dello spettatore legandolo alla tristezza di un uomo apparentemente sconfitto dalla vita, che paradossalmente proprio a telecamere spente trova il suo momento di gioia e di redenzione prima di uscire e di tornare alla sua vita con uno spirito differente. Molta attenzione al dettaglio e alla fotografia che rendono più gradevoli sequenze altrimenti potenzialmente noiose. See more John N 06/22/2023 I really liked this one. See more Daniel G 10/01/2022 A modern fable, sort of a Cinderella-story. Though slow paced, the scenery of southern Chile is remarkable, and though it seems that only one song is played, the way it's performed at various moments, especially at the finale, is remarkable. Jorge Garcia did an excellent job portraying the damaged protagonist who does get his last laugh. See more 03/07/2022 Memo, with introverted feeling, is wonderful to watch. How emotions are portrayed without words. There are a few scenes that are a bit obvious, which lowered it for me, creating links that were already obvious (like showing the childhood passport to link the present day Memo to the child Memo), but I loved the quiet introversion of the film, a joy to watch.
