I really enjoyed this movie even though it was very sad. The movie is about a retired old man who sees his country (Argentina) becoming an impossible place to live. The social infrastructure and corruption are impossible after the changes to the economy. The old man lives alone with his dog and does crosswords to pass the time. His wife died many years previously and he has a good friend that comes over to visit and they pass the time with witty and funny conversation. They make fun of the dog and the dog really adds atmosphere to the movie. The end of the movie is really sad as we can see that the old man is simply waiting to join his wife. He has only one way out. Very sad but touching.
