Synopsis

After being in rehab for two years, Cesar now works in a small balloon factory in suburban Buenos Aires. His former father in law will force him to take care of his young estranged son, whose mother died in an accident. But Cesar has plans to give Alfonso up for adoption.

MUBI's take

Winning the International Critics’ Award at the Mar del Plata festival, this refreshing look at fatherhood presents a vision far from the usual representations of paternal roles. By revolving closely around its main character, this social drama might feel claustrophobic, but is beautifully humane.
