All The Lonely People is a funny and melancholic multi-layered story about a set of characters searching for happiness in a small town, during a hot summer. The script has beautiful twists and the casting is absolutely perfect. It's a very moving story and it involves the lives of anyone: who doesn't feel lonely once in a while? Two desperate housewives, a preacher, a priest, a bodybuilder and a fat boy cross and intertwine in this story about the lack of communication, the search for love and the need for love. The movie has laughs, tears and love, something we all expect to find in a good movie. Or at least in a great one. It's a MUST SEE MOVIE from Argentina.

Workingman's Death
(2005)
A brilliant testimony of our times...
26 March 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I haven't been so shocked by a movie in a year. This film represents the extreme experiences of workers in five places in the world. It's extraordinarily well shot and it's provoking and profound. Unlike Michael Moore, Glawogger allows the viewers to think, to feel and to react... I strongly recommend this film. There's nothing funny about this. The filmmakers share the experiences with the characters they depict. The claustrophobia of an illegal mine in Ukraine, the long exhausting walks of the sulfur workers in Indonesia, the bloodbath of the butchers in Nigeria, the danger of the ships cemetery in Pakistan and the last days of an iron factory in China. It depicts the state of the workingman in the world nowadays. 10 out of 10.
The Blonds
(2003)
Extraordinary puzzle...
26 October 2003
Los Rubios (The Blonds) is a brave and unique film. Brave because it defies a simple way of approaching Argentine past. And unique because it finds a very personal and original way to tell its story.
The story, if we can call it that way, refers to a personal trauma: Albertina Carri's parents were kidnapped and killed during Argentina's dirty war. Albertina questions everything: the past, the present, the testimonies, the realities and fictions of memories.
It´s a very free spirited film that intertwines different narrative sources in a very irreverent way. A must see. 10/10.
