Trivia
Director Albertina Carri thinks that the scenes showing 8-years-old Nazarena Duarte fully naked could be controversial in this climate of paranoia with the children's bodies. "I think they are such strong scenes that they are not even mentioned. In fact, when we were shooting them with Sol (Lopatín), the director of photography, we were wondering what to do with the material. I was a little afraid of them, especially to explain them to the parents. But in that sense it wasn't so complicated. They are scenes that also have something annoying, that feel unnecessary,"-Carri says.

An erotic affair set in the Argentinian farm landscape

A forbidden passion story happening before the eyes of children, when a married woman with a mute daughter gets into a steamy relationship with a single father of a teenage boy. The husband of the woman openly dislikes and frequently argues with the owner of the neighboring farm, unaware of her wife's affair with him.

The movie's tone is sad and lonely. Children wander alone in the vast farms, adults cannot communicate with each other and unhappiness is constantly present. The only thing they hang on to is the passionate sex they have against all odds.

The movie is fluid and well told with good directing. Half way through the movie I thought the director must be a vegetarian feminist and that normally is not something that would impress me. Even so I liked the film and it is well worth watching.
