How do you explain the 2001 Argentine Debacle without explicit takes of people throwing stones at cops? This is the way. Gaggero's first feature is a portrait of two classes (represented by two wonderful women) at the brink of collapse. One from Belgrano (the cradle of Buenos Aires urban bourgeois strata), and previously from posh Martinez, and the other from impoverished Alejandro Korn, a suburb that looks like an empty field (only 44 km from Buenos Aires). When Beba, the "señora", gets to the point where she cannot pay Dora's wages, the employer-employee relationship starts to break and we are left with the rests of it: the comeback of humanity. It is to note that once the danger of meltdown has passed, the middle-high Argentineans came back to the same disgusting attitudes against the poor, and with a vengeance.

I happened to stumble on this movie on cable and I tapped in Tivo..I love it. It has all the feelings from the rich people and poor people. Big Lesson...the rich one lose it all and go asking the poor for assistance. Norma Leandro y Norma Argentina really did a WONDERFUL JOB. I would love to have it in my collection..why so expensive??
