During a layover in Buenos Aires, 31-year-old German athlete Maria is mesmerized by the city, and her bewilderment grows when her father suddenly reveals her true connection to Argentina — leading her to uncover the painful details of her adoption.
Shot with a fluid restlessness that speaks to its lead character’s search for identity, this restrained adoption drama, set in a vibrant Buenos Aires, reaches for big themes with impressive economy. The gut-punch of an ending alone heralds the arrival of a major new voice in director Florian Cossen.
