A woman (Pilar López de Ayala), who just went through a painful breakup, and a phobic web designer (Javier Drolas) live in the same neighborhood but suffer from urban loneliness.

With its themes of alienation in the Internet age and cutesy indie-ish trimmings, the film will feel familiar to anyone who's seen a bittersweet romantic comedy from Sundance.

When a film lays all the cards on the table simply to appease the characters' neuroses and insecurities, it becomes self-congratulatory.

It's hard to truly hate any movie whose ending revolves around a clever Where's Waldo? gag. It's also near impossible to take it seriously for that exact same reason.

[Sidewalls] is far from a masterpiece, but it is a well-designed and even better-constructed product. An study of urban decay (in its many facets) tinged with pleasant touches of romantic comedy. [Full review in Spanish]

Medianeras may test your tolerance for cuteness, but it's an enchanting modern day fairy-tale cut from the same cloth as 500 Days of Summer and Punch-Drunk Love.

Medianeras is the name in Spanish for this film, as an Spanish speaker I must say , that I really enjoyed the dialogue, not sure if the english translation makes the effort to really imprint the Argentinian spice. I found this movie interesting, childish, fun. A good look into the lives of the past "Adults", and makes us think on how different is everything now.

I love this little film. Great photography of Buenos Aires architecture. It's a sweet little rom-com, but I think it has some depth to it as well.

Great movie. Very different from your run of the mill love stories. What makes the movie refreshing is the concept is so different.
