The movie started off, and the first thing I thought was "the angles though".
To me, it was clear from the beginning, that this was the work of no ordinary director. The movie was made with passion. The aesthetics spoke to me. Alma Noce's powerful acting and her eternal sulk was beyond the call of duty.
There is also this evil touch to it. A tragedy that is not so unordinary, which only makes it an even more real and emotional experience.
But Nadia, the protagonist, turned it all around, with her strong will, or some lingering and mysterious force that is never explained to us. The mystique intrigues and captures one's attention.
I loved the birthmark. It satisfies the viewer's need for something unique and different. A subtle detail, but nonetheless, of great taste.
