With smaller indie films, particularly international films, you can get anything from a dumpster fire to a masterpiece to anything in between. To me this movie is a masterpiece. From the direction, to the soundtrack, to the cinematography, to the production design, to the acting. To me Nicolas Prattes performance as Davi is stunning, it is an exemplary career defining performance. He truly becomes this character, you are equal parts mesmerized and revolted. The other male lead is also very, very good as is the rest of the cast. The dialogue is also very realistic, natural and believable. This movie totally did not turn out the way I expected which is rare in modern hollywood movies but clearly alive and well in the indie scene. I can't say enough about this movie. A top notch debut for the director. I don't do social media but I almost opened a twitter account to to let Prattes know how amazing he was in this. So if you happen to read this hats off my friend. I could easily see you following Gael Bernal and Diego Luna and becoming a world renowned movie star!
