This movie is the first and best in a new era of film-making in Colombia; it started it: the era of good movie-making. This story is about real people, a window perhaps to the clichés of what people might think a part of our country and our people are like, but from our own point of view, which gives it an undeniable touch of authenticity. This film is finally about solidarity, which is one universal value we humans tend to appreciate. It might not be the reflection of our whole reality, but it makes a beautiful and warm portrait of a side of it, and of some values that can always be enjoyed. Very good, sincere performances; a captivating story, and a clever ending. This is by far the best movie ever made in Colombia.
