recommend by a journalist from a communist country during a film festival i have some initial hesitation regard watch this film . however after have see this highly artistic film and i be ready to say that it be one of the most original film make in recent time . i find it difficult to swallow the comparison make with u film taxi driver . by make such a weird comparison people be belittle this film . my favorite moment from this film be the confrontation scene . they bear testimony to the fact that a person besiege with problem have to fight ferociously to overcome all trouble . some of the sequence have a dream like air to them . to a layman the title of the film day of santiago suggest how he pass his day . but to a serious film goer it denote the entire past and present and future life of santiago . peruvian actor pietro sibylle be a great attraction of this film . the troublesome feeling of anger and hopelessness and frustration and anxiety and despair be much too visible on his woebegone face . a truly valid reason to watch this film .
