Goyo

I just finished watching one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. Goyo takes place in Argentina. The central character is a person who is "different" from most people. While he is happy with who he is, he knows there is something very important he is missing in his life. In this remarkable film, he feels he has finally found it. The cast of characters around him, both family and friends, have their own ideas about what would be good or bad for him. It is fascinating to watch the story - his life - unfold a little at a time. That is not to say the movie is slow. Far from it. This is a classic film worthy of an oscar.

Beautiful love story about Goyo, a young Asperger Argentinean man from a high-class and rich family and his encounter with Eva, a much older working class woman. I like the spotlight this movie puts on contrasts between classes in Argentina. Goyo's sister is very superstitious while his brother has no issue to eat in popular places, go to football matches and is in my view one of the gems of this film, showing how to empower a man by treating him as normal, no matter how special he is. My only critic is regarding the character of Eva's violent husband t that might represent the Argentinean reality, but can also strengthen stereotypes.

This wonderful film from Argentina features Nicholas Furtado as a young man afflicted with Asperger's syndrome. The viewer watches him, transform his character through love via a serendipitous meeting with an older woman. Goyo, the title character, not only suffers from a personality disorder, but also suffers for the dysfunction of a family, that smothers him.

The portrayal is subtle and powerful, and its ability to reveal the soul of the character he plays, is probably the strongest reason to watch this film. While eroticism is presented as well as sexuality the script writer has done so in a fashion that is sensitive and tasteful. This is a film you should put on your watchlist.

As a mom to an autistic/ I can relate to this movie . All the actors a great . It more explores what may happen with a love match between a neurodivergent and a neurotypical person . It doesn't quite try to give all the answers - it's more of a character depiction . Really enjoyed the visual effects and the lead actor embodies his role perfectly. . Loved to see a familiar Argentinian actor Pablo Rago - had not seen him in years - great to see him in the role of his brother.

If you enjoy character pieces - you will find this an enjoyable watch.

If you are seeking to tie all loose ends. This might not be for you as it's more of an exploration of the what if scenario rather than an absolute .

Goyo is a movie that introduces us the difference between people that has different mental disorders and the people that don't, although I believe this movie explained in a perfect way how to be inclusive with people different to us and how to help them This movie is a very important subject of how we as a society need to improve our manners for treating people different of us In my personal opinion I highly recommend this movie but I believe is not for younglings or little kids because of the Depth of the plot and because little kids wouldn't understand the deep message of this beautiful movie.

I really liked this movie and because of that I give it 9 stars.
