Writer and director Fernando Eimbcke delivers a poignant and subtle coming of age story. The story set in a quiet coastal town tells the story of a teenage boy dealing with the grief of his father's death. Instead of getting explosion of emotions, we see the characters implode with loss of speech. Eimbcke innovates a language and landscape of his own by the telling this story that's loosely based on Vitterio de Sica's The Bicycle Thief. Eimbcke joins the lead of superb filmmakers from Mexico. YRCinema's coverage of the AFI Fest 2008.
