Spanish with english subtitles.

 

Argentina, 1978, and a young woman collapses while seemingly under escort. Rosario, 1976, and Carlos Resta returns after being "away" to reclaim the family home, hang out with friends including one obviously off the deep end but most importantly, meet with Mat�as Grappa, the young son he's never known. But as the highly introverted Grappa, touching in his first role, begins to make a friend and reach out, Resta himself flashes back to that moment that has haunted and forever changed his friend. The poignant aftermath of the "dirty war" which in fact is never mentioned.

 

Argentina, 1978; una mujer joven se desvanece cuando parece estar detenida. Rosario, 1976; luego de haber estado "afuera", Carlos Resta regresa para reclamar la casa de su familia, reunirse con amigos incluyendo uno totalmente loco y, lo m�s importante, reunirse con Mat�as Grappa, el joven hijo que nunca conoci�. Pero cuando el muy introvertido Grappa, conmovedor en su primer papel, comienza a hacer un amigo y a abrirse, Resta mismo regresa en el tiempo al momento que ha perseguido a su amigo y que lo cambiara para siempre. Dolorosas secuelas de la "guerra sucia" que, de hecho, nunca es mencionada.
