Nicolás Medina Montevideo Portal / Latido Beat May 10
7/10
It is a film about what is not said. About family ties crossed by money, power and guilt. But it also talks about the possibility of looking from another place. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Olivia Popp Cineuropa 10/21/2024
Long, immersive scenes between family members and intimate moments where the camera simply observes everyday interactions create a fly-on-the-wall feeling that contributes to a strong sense of place where global and neighbourhood politics collide.

3.5/5
Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed is worth a watch for how it bends the documentary form, distorting the context of real footage to interrogate the notions of technology and memory. Go to Full Review Àngel Quintana Caimán Cuadernos de Cine 06/13/2024
A lucid vision of something that is within the social unconscious of Argentina. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Jara Yáñez Caimán Cuadernos de Cine 06/13/2024
A dazzling labyrinth, in short, whose analysis is not exhausted in these few lines and to which we will undoubtedly return more calmly as soon as we find the opportunity. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews
