This is a lovely film. Mateo Chiarino is "Martin" a down on his luck young man who is looking for work. He stumbles across his childhood friend Manuel Vignau "Eugenio" who offers him some summer work as a handyman. The film then sedately turns into a love story. It is in no great rush to get anywhere; the photography is beautiful and the score gently nudges us to what we hope is the inevitable conclusion. The dialogue is sparing; much of the emotional tension is implied rather than imposed and though the lead characters are attractive, they are much less "pretty" than in, say, "Taekwondo". This is a classy piece of work.
