| Description: | Javier and Maria live together. Discontent with life in Argentina, they plan to migrate to Miami in search for a better life. Since Maria has a US residency, they hastly marry and she flies ahead. He resigns his job, sells his car and apartment, and packs his things. On the way to the airport he receives a call from Maria, she doesn´t want him to come over. She's confused. She's involved with somebody else. Javier is destroyed. He's a walking ghost, constantly pestering his friends, family and shrink about Maria, about getting her back. He goes through a complete duel period, every stage documented in clever if not completely original comedy. Finally getting back to his senses, he tries to set out again and find somebody. Getting "it" back is difficult and he's bad (very) at it. After a few mishaps, he meets someone, Julia. An emotionally scarred but sweet clerk at the veterinarian, and things seem to work, slowly but promising. Then Maria's father dies and she returns, all confused again, asking Javier to love her again. He's nice but (finally) in his right mind, senstitive, but not bitting. The duel is over. He's ready to live again. Film in Spanish with English sub-titles. Director: Juan Taratuto |
