Review of El camino

El camino (IV) (2008)
7/10
Berlinale
3 August 2008
I watched this movie (it does feel more like a documentary) at the Berlin Film Festival (Berlinale), where it did hit a mark with the viewers. Of course it did, with an open confrontation of a "real" problem (children without parents or in this case in the search for them).

The performances are really great and even if I hadn't read about it, I'd knew that the children weren't actors, but casted because they had a similar "problem" and could relate to the movie's theme. So the drama part works really good and shows us a dark side of our planet, if we dare to look and/or acknowledge it, is a completely different topic ...
