I think this is one of the few Argentinian movies that I have seen, and this is definitely the best. Although it uses the same premise as any other detective/killer movie, this one has a soul of its own,
and that special vibe that you cannot find in American movies. The sets, clothes and everything else was top notch just like in some big budget holywood flick, acting was pretty good, maybe at times a bit stiff, but that just represents different mentality of the people. After his retirement Benjamín Esposito decided to write a book about the case that has been with him for 25 years. A murder and rape of a beautiful young women. Director decided to mix the current events with his memories of the case, and that proved to be the right choice. I especially liked the assistant of Esposito, Pablo Sandoval an alcoholic with a great sense of humor.Through the movie, Esposito also ponders about his life and the women that he worked with and had a crush on. This movie is truly refreshing take on a same subject that we see in mainstream cinema, so check it out. Enjoy.
