Very interesting, intense and sensitive film by Hector Olivera

I wish if there were more films like this in Argentine production. interesting, very tell written...an intense,100 % true story, a complex storyline which includes Argentina history, romance, drama and much more. Hector Olivera has many valuable films in his career and is today one o the most acclaimed directors of Argentina. He uses tremendous actors, as Luis Machin , Adriana Celentano and Carla Peterson giving the best of themselves. A story of ethics, infidelity, love and hate around the reonwned David Ciqueiros. no one is innocent here; everybody shows weakness and values as well. there is no black and white. There are multiple tones, as in a Siqueiros painting. It is a real shame this film didn't receive the corresponding public answer. Maybe in this times of so many commercial films we tend to discard this tipe. Anyway, I recommend you to spend some time watching this so well made movie.
