Dreadful!!
This “film” has about 5 minutes of material, and even that is pretty uninteresting. Loneliness, bleakness, alienation, alcoholism, all have done before a thousand times better than this. Endless scenes of minimal content, virtually no dialogue, opaque characters, all add up to a movie that can be watched at triple speed with no loss, because, despite claims for it as a bleak masterpiece, there is no THERE there. How many times do we have to watch this man trudge through the snow, put on his coat, take off his coat, eat a meal? How did such a film ever get financed? Perhaps a state grant? Maybe some leftover funds to be distributed before the end of the fiscal year? There is no other explanation. Don’t waste your time.
An examination of loneliness
With less than 80 shots and faithful towards an idea of cinema, the fourth Lisandro Alonso film repeats the best of his previous works and goes toward a new territory, let’s say, a poetic minimalist narrative, complex and simple at the same time, but always plethora of many readings. A man called Farrel works in a big ship, a sailor, of course. When he arrives in the southern city, Usuhuaia, he asks for permission to his captain to go somewhere; it seems to be her mother lives in a small village, not so far from there. But, there’s a secret agenda which is about family matters but not strictly maternal issues, an undisclosed purpose till the very end, in which a narrative twist will be revealed through a “fetish” key-chain with a name on it. It’s a movie about solitude and the longing for otherness, although it’s also a portray of human beings as existential animals deeply rooted in landscapes, in this case the majestic cold mountains from Tierra del Fuego. Formally daring, there’re many passages in this film which can be seen as paintings in movement, although it’s a narrative decision its bravest choice: his main character, Farrel, will leave us 30 minutes before the film ends.
