"Control Zeta" is a pleasant cinematic experience, in a genre that Argentine cinema hardly touches: science fiction.
But the philosophical and human background is based on the hero's sacrifice for a loved one at the same time that he reflects on destiny and the impossibility of changing it at will. As reinforcement of the central idea, a chain of events appears, as in the myth of Sisyphus, that leaves the protagonist in the same place and faced with only one possible decision.
I especially highlight the precise photography, which gives character to the story and supports the composition of the characters.
With successful performances, the duo Farisco - Medina maintain a chemistry that the camera captures in every detail.
As is often highlighted in Argentine independent cinema, it is common to "make magic" with limited resources. In "Contro Zeta" it is achieved with precision in the selection of locations, settings and costumes.
I only see two details in which verisimilitude suffers: the harshness of some of the dialogues and the choreography of some action scenes. Both aspects are saved by the rhythm printed in the edition and the very well distributed plot twists.
If you doubt a film that entertains and raises questions in the viewer.
