    Stupendous film...

    Pearl of Argentine cinema, a fantastic playwright, very well conducted, to intrigue us and that plot twist, and the saddest, which is based on real facts, in fact, of two crimes that were unrelated, but generated an excellent very well produced work, highlighting Cecília and Yanina Ávila (who is a domestic worker and of humble origin), a beautiful, dramatic, sensitive, critical, stupendous film ...

    A bit too slow in an otherwise great film

    This movie is based on real events and that makes the film more sad . The problem with this film is the pacing in my opinion . It too slow and sometimes boring . After the 3/4 of the film it gets faster and the tension increases . This movie is heartbreaking and it just's ... it's really WOW . The acting is amazing every single actor nails the role . If it wasn't that slow this movie could be a masterpiece??

    Slow paced but beautifully done

    Movie teaches life, crime, judgement and emotional decisions specifically inside families.

    Very nicely portrayed and well crafted screen play. Recommend it.

    Really touching

    My wife and I watched this movie without great expectation. However, we were really surprised by the plot, from the start until the last stunning revelation. As Argentinians, we found all the set up quite realistic. All actors are very good and their performances were remarkably adequate. The story may be small, but this is a great movie. Actually, the best Argentine movie of the few last years, in our opinion.

    MANY IN THE WORLD IS LIKE THE VICTIM

    Very heart rendering movie from Argentina, in Spanish. Solid acting. What does a woman do when she discover she's with child, and will be thrown out of her dwelling into homelessness & penniless? And no family to fall back? All evidences stacked against her. Her savior soon turned accuser, her earlier kindness now seem self serving.

    The story unfolded like a multi bulbed onion, layer by layer, in parallel.

    What would you have done if you were the victim, or the accuser? The audience & the court will believe everyone's testimony - except the victim's. How would you save the victim?
