Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

When Victor returns from Argentina to visit his dying father Max, concerns about his mental health also arise. Max is convinced he's in danger, trapped 'in a city with no limits', and thus incapable of saving the mysterious 'Rancel'. Persuaded to help him escape and find Rancel, Victor embarks on a journey into the past his mother would rather he hadn't taken. If the attractive cast and soaring strings sometimes make it feel like a telenovella. It's good-looking and well-paced film, and Fernán-Gómez's Max makes for a suitably paranoid but eminently sympathetic character.
