This joint Argentinian/Spanish collaboration is based on a Novella by Eduardo Sacheri.
The subtle pacing gives an added depth to the emotional undercurrents of the characters and plot.Like most films dealing with thew age of dictators in Spain and Latin America the past is portrayed in a dreamlike reverie from another universe always just beneath the surface but can only be looked at through a prism , never directly , which occasionally shakes the suppressed pent feelings crying out for resolution.
To highlight just how many layers of barely perceptible deep thought have been put into this project check-out the detailed and careful attention given by director Juan Jose Campanella into the hardly noticeable background music to one of the scenes:
As you can see from the video below the reviewers the World over are , quite literally , raving about this masterpiece , and rightly so.
In this segment of an interview given by Campanella the real crime the Film deals with is the Past , and it is the way each character strives to solve it which has such meaning for the audiences which have loved this film.
