Overview

• Director Benjamín Ávila returns after Infancia clandestina with a feature led by Natalia Oreiro as a mother thrust into the carceral world.
• The narrative draws on the real case of Andrea Casamento, whose son was detained in 2004 and later cleared, a turning point that spurred her advocacy for relatives of detainees.
• Early reviews praise Oreiro’s committed performance while noting passages that lean into sentimental cues, including the romantic subplot.
• Ávila cites Ken Loach as a key influence, emphasizing a humanist lens that resists simple moral binaries and invites discussion about justice and incarceration.
• The Argentina/Spain production is in cinemas with a 105‑minute runtime, rated 13+, co-written by Ávila and Marcelo Müller, and features Amparo Noguera and Alberto Ammann, who plays Alejo.
