Ovaj argentiski film me definitifvno nije oduševio . Ipak sam gledao i gore od njega.
Gluma nije loša kao ni sama režija filma, ali sam priča filma je nekako nedorečena.
Victor, 20-togodišnji mladić , nižerazredni narkodiler koji se bavi i prostitucijom u Buenos Airesu, kruži gradom po raznim klubovima i javnim kupatilima sa prijateljima koje srecće po ulicama.
Kroz ovu filmsku priču Viktor nas upoznaje sa svijetom prostitucije, tranvestita, narkomana, pedera, beskućnika, ukratko sa samim dnom svakog društva.
U ovom filmu sa jako malo dijaloga režiser Edgardo Cozarinsky nam prikazuje jednu mračnu stranu Buenos Airesa, prepunu mizerije i nepravde. Nedorečenost samog filma bi valjda trebalo da nam ostavi prostora da nakon filma razmislimo o tome.



This dark, sensitive tale of an atypical night in the life of Victor, a 20-year-old Buenos Aires prostitute, puts a fresh, intelligent twist on the frequently told drama of young male hustlers. Victor plies his trade in a foreboding, seedy world with its nocturnal denizens – horny businessmen, drug addicts, fellow prostitutes, transvestites, and the homeless- and the threat of violence simmering just below the surface of most encounters. Projecting a cool nonchalance bordering on insensitivity, the handsome, mop-haired young Victor feels at peace with both this world and his trade.
The night, however, quickly takes on an ominous feel after he narrowly escapes being hit by a car right after midnight and the beginning of All Souls Days. He is haunted by this brush with death, and as the night wears on, other incidents – threatening strangers, a friend who almost kills him after sex, the remembrance of a past love – combine to create for Victor, a subtle, surreal urban odyssey.
Veteran director Edgardo Cozarinsky weaves a fascinating portrait of a young man forced to confront his past, his present and his future. (Spanish with English subtitles)
