I am Basque, and when I heard about that film I wanted to whatch it. I waited, and then the moment came.
With an interesting start, Filmed in Tenerife (I love Cannary islands), in Galego (the languaje from Galicia) and the nature that involves the movie as a different character, I though it could be a very good movie for me. I personally love the Islandic cinema and I found that this could be something like that kind of cinema with actors from Galicia and told in their languaje with the hot from the volcanic Island of Tenerife. But I was very wrong.
The movie is slow, with poor cinematography and rare acting. The only great thing was the soundtrack, Camilo Sanabria does a great job as a composer, and also the sound crew from the movie is great, recording the soundscapes that involves the movie. But there are a lot of things missing in that drama. It is boring and I felt like I was watching 2 hours movie, instead of 1h and 15 minutes. You don´t know what they are talking about and you feel loosing interest every minute that passes. Finally you are thankfull that it ends. A complete fail for me.
