ReviewsTime Out - A tense crime thriller

Additional InformationLala (Ines Efron, who also starred in XXY) is an Argentinean girl from a wealthy family. She's desperately in love with the family's young live-in maid, La Guayi (singer Mariela Vitale, making her feature-film debut), and she's jealous of La Guayi's many other admirers. When Lala's politically active father, Bronte (e), dies under mysterious circumstances, she runs off to La Guayi's remote hometown in Paraguay, hoping that her lover will follow. There, she uncovers the truth about La Guayi's sordid past, and the maid's troubled relationship with her own father, a telenovela star named S≤crates (real-life Paraguayan soap star Arnaldo Andre). Lala also explores the local legend of The Fish Child. Meanwhile, La Guayi is imprisoned for her suspected involvement in Bronte's death, and when Lala finds out, she jeopardizes her own freedom by returning home. In Puenzo's novel, written when she was just 23 years old, the story is told from the point-of-view of Lala's family dog. The film features an appearance by the Paraguayan musical group the Potrankos.

Una película tabú atrevida
El cine independiente, como sello característico, tiene su libertad para contar historias. En esta película de género dramático el guión es atrevido por sus temas tabús y reales como sucedería en la vida real a cualquier persona. De esta misma directora su película controversial XXY es un hito en este tipo de producciones. La directora y guionista de ambas películas, Lucia Puenzo, te permite apreciar su punto de vista femenino.
