Synopsis

A year after his father’s death, Victor returns to Buenos Aires in order to reconquer the life he was forced to abandon. He brings a new project with him for his former theater company: a radio-play of Shakespeare’s “Love’s Labour’s Lost”, a play they had all worked on together before he left.

Our take

Matías Piñeiro offers another ingenious and spry blend of pure cinema and the pleasures of Shakespeare. A whirlwind of young women swirl around and intersect with the life of a radio director in Buenos Aires through a multiplicity of relationships, love, & play. This film is a rare, gentle delight.
