Argentina
Well done personal story of a family's fate during the dirty war. We focus on a 12 yo boy: his coming-of-age is the core of the film as it's affected by his parents' guerrilla activities. He finds first love, gets a first kiss and watches as his life unravels.
Beautifully acted, scripted. The director was revisiting his own life. Far too much reliance on extreme close-ups. Nice use of animation during frantic/chaotic moments. Excellent supporting cast...especially the young girl who was perfectly directed in some difficult scenes.
Sympathetic to those opposed to the fascists but...really... First rate cinema.
