Sinekatalog’s take
Pablo Trapero's black-and-white debut follows a middle-aged Buenos Aires crane operator, jobless and chasing work. Funny and gently sad, with non-professional actors, it is a modest, humane portrait of a struggling man.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
