This is competently made but inconsequential; the period sets and costumes are ultimately more convincing than the characters inhabiting them. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

01/15/2014 An Argentinian film that might as well have been a silent film. Not a lot happens. The main actress really shows how insecure her character is without really saying anything, and it's truly remarkably saddening. See more 11/22/2008 Desde sus primeros dias, el rechazo -tanto propio como ajeno- son la tona de la protagonista de esta pelicula. De aspecto gracioso, diferente, no encaja en una Argentina de principios de siglo XX, pero aun asi se casa por obligacion. Su interior se explora a traves de hermosas secuencias de animacion, muy al contrario de su constante reticencia a ser fotografiada en las formaciones familiares. Una imagineria diferente y un retrato original de esa joven Argentina resaltan en esta interesante pelicula. See more Read all reviews
