I was taken by the high sense of realty that the author & director in collaboration with good actors could successfully expose through the very slow-monotonous beat. That's life under-cover sometimes.
Although I scratched my head several times during the movies out of deep thinking in what is in the director's mind; I couldn't escape the mixture of feelings that I have for and because of humanistic messages and well-built characters.
For example; the manifestation of suppressed Mercedes by father-like Roberto was great. She wasn't able to take neither an action nor a reaction. In one of the greatest inner-struggle scenes I've seen; she wouldn't need some one even Filex to stop her from departure!! A hallow look did the job.
Also, I couldn't hate Roberto after all his deeds because simply it's well drawn that he's a product of his environment and circumstances.
Filex was showed as a role model for love and compassion for others. His attitudes were shaped with respect and clear ethical rules; allow him not to interfere in Roberto's family business, and to link himself only with the infant.
To conclude, the movie is masterwork in my opinion due to many things; but mainly the awesome manifestation of atmospheric reality that made me see, smell, taste, hear, sympathize and contemplate at the very same time.
Beware of it fast-lane lovers. Nevertheless, I highly recommend it at all levels.
