To compensate the bad reviews...

It&apos;s the first review I write for a movie and I do it pushed by the need to compensate the two really bad reviews the movie received so far.

Indeed it is not a perfect movie, but I do think it is totally worth a viewing. In a quite simple way it pictures the situation of an immigrant Peruvian worker in Chile. And pictures is the right word as the movie shows more than it explains: through the faces of the protagonist (I found her acting pretty convincing), comparing how she communicates with her son (online, as he is still living in Peru) with the interaction she has with the girl she takes care of, her stoicism, her seeking of human contact, the reality of hard working immigrants doing everything to save money and the contrast with the people they work for... The corners of an almost round film are the musical intervals: in my humble opinion they break the rhythm and the general tone of the story, and at first glare even appeared to me as a bit frivolous. After researching a bit, I understood that those are known Peruvian songs (or tunes - side note: hats off to including one in Quechua) and guess that the director takes them completely out of their original context to give some absurdity and strange proximity to the story.

To sum up: not a disaster, worth a chance.
