This a low budget film, which goes right into the heart without cheap sentimentality or tricks: three crossed stories about simple people living at the end of the world, in a poor province of a poor country.The characters are as real as life, the actors are convincing. Not all the people shown are "nice good people always disposed to help" (by instance, the son of the man of the dog and her wife) but in all the cases they are true as life itself. That art (which is mainly "artifice") could grasp life so truly and honestly has lots of (artistic) merit. In that respect, this film is an achievement. A must see
