Of a Buenos Aires taxidermist who lives in a fantasy crime world that soon becomes a twisted reality. Ricard Darin (Argentina's finest) plays the epileptic Esteban who finds himself on an ill-conceived hunting trip that turns ugly and fuels his fantasy of a secret criminal life. Even though this film is 2 hours, 14 minutes, I can't say there isn't a single frame that doesn't belong to the story. The actors and story-telling are spot on.
Even though this film is from 2005 it has legs and deserves 3.5 outta 5 with a bullet.
