the film be a bit tedious . it mostly a silent film and with the bulk o the story provide through a series of voice over . while make a silent film like this be not such a bad idea and this be one of those film where the lack of dialog and the repetitive early scene make it simply tedious . you do not understand the reason for the tedium until well into the picture and and by then it too late . the first 40 minute of film be something of a slow piece of mexican soft porn and and unimaginative soft porn at that . later in the film the style of the first 40 minute start to make sense and but it too late and because by then the audience be lose . there be some nice location shoot at the national autonomous university of mexico . i have often wonder why more film aren not shoot there . the campus be build on the edge of lava field that lend the campus a very otherworldly feel . my big problem with the film be that the director or writer have make the film the way he want to see it without regard for how a viewer who doesn not know the story will view it . you can not ignore the audience when you tell a story .
