At least that happened to me when I saw this film at its third show in BAFICI (Buenos Aires Festival de Cine Independiente). At some point I forgot I was seeing a documentary. Which, in my own opinion, is a good sign for a documentary film.
The peddler took me into Daniel Burmeister's life in less than five minutes. The rest of the film I felt like I was there.
The film has a good balance of photography, storyline and Argentinian country lifestyle. The way Daniel lives his life and how his arrival interrupts the other way calm small town named Benjamin Gould; were of great material to work with. Which combined with the expertise of the team behind scenes developed into an excellent film. This film is a must if you like country way of life or if you ever had dreamed about being a film director. But I'm sure a lot of people with different interests would enjoy seeing this documentary for a lot of reasons —as social background, just for naming one.
