This film is an oasis within current Colombian cinematography.

Carlos del Castillo already demonstrated in his previous film "La Ciénaga" (awarded in prestigious Sundance International Film Festival) that he has a very different cinematographic vision from what is usual in Colombia.
This film´s aesthetic is poetic, melancholic and deep, like Tornatore's greatest Italian films that stay in one's heart for a long time until one feels the need to watch them again.
The cinema made in Colombia is limited to realistic documentary themes with an emphasis on violence, drugs and prostitution. This film by Carlos Del Castillo is an oasis that hopefully inspires other filmmakers to bet on art and creativity instead of reducing their stories to hyper-realism focused solely on raw and painful stories that may be of interest in some European film festivals, but hardly this kind of movies arouses the interest of the audience.
I highly recommend this beautiful film.
