7/10
study of relationships
9 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
When Leon finds Ivana's cell phone, he calls her to return it... but there's catch: she has to meet him for dinner, or an ice cream, or a coffee to get it back. She meets him at a cafe, and is surprised to see that he is quite short. Guillermo Francella and Julieta Diaz star in this study of human relationships. Leon clearly has money, and lives a very exciting life, but Ivana doesn't know if she is ready for that right now. As we know, she owns a law firm with her ex-husband, and they have an ongoing business relationship. She seems to be okay with Leon's short-height, but is somehow bothered when others notice it, or talk about it. Quite well done. Good supporting cast, including Francella's actual son, who also plays his son in the film. Apparently they work together quite frequently. Written and directed by Marcos Carnevale. Just one of many of his projects. It appears he also does a lot of television. This one is showing on netflix. Fun. Tackles some serious issues but has a sense of humor.
