Well Done, But Frustrating
5 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This film is definitely worth seeing. It is very well crafted, from the cinematography to the acting. We get a front row seat to the dysfunctional and frustrating relationship between flat mates Gabo and Juan. There are a lot of drawn-out scenes of friends socializing and pensive looks from across the room and some may find this to be boring and overly long. The frustration factor in this story is high as Gabo continually gets emotionally abused by Juan and always comes back for more, never uttering a word of protest. The surprise ending only adds to the frustration. The actor who plays Gabo, Gaston Re, is outstanding. He conveys so much emotion in his looks with very little dialogue throughout the story. I just wish he would have fought back a bit and put Juan in his place.
