For two winters, just like the fishermen that feature in the film, the director went out every morning to shoot the coast in San Clemente del Tuyú, a few meters from her house. From the copious footage, she chose fifteen days that reveal the tension and the diversity of textures, sounds and small stories that are born out of patience and attention.
Reviews
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
