Argentine 1979. Juan, 12 ans, et sa famille reviennent à Buenos Aires sous une fausse identité après des années d'exil. Les parents de Juan et son oncle Beto sont membres de l'organisation Montoneros, en lutte contre la junte militaire au pouvoir qui les traque sans relâche. Pour tous ses amis à l'école et pour Maria dont il est amoureux, Juan se prénomme Ernesto. Il ne doit pas l'oublier, le moindre écart peut être fatal à toute sa famille. C'est une histoire de militantisme, de clandestinité et d'amour. L'histoire d'une enfance clandestine. (Pyramide Distribution)

A very interesting story from one of the – at least to me – unfamiliar era or Argentine history. It was told very beautifully, but I basically didn’t learn anything about those times. It was filmed from a child’s point of view whilst the director told bits of his own childhood, too. On the other hand, he didn’t have a problem saying nothing more than a child would feel. But then again, it wasn’t that subtle. Every now and then, he tried out some artistic tricks that I didn’t exactly love. That’s also why I’m rating it three stars.

Okay, I have to admit that Natalia Oreiro was the first impetus to see the film. Seeing her in something other than a soap opera was pleasant. But there isn't much of her here, and the film works much more really as a memoir of the director of a strange life and a strange time in Argentina. The story and the development of the main character make it intriguing.

The first childhood romance against the political tensions of 1970s Argentina. While the plot line of twelve year-old Juan is well executed, funny and emotional, the events of the other line happen as if by the way. Maybe it’s because that’s how they are perceived by the protagonist (the twelve year-old boy). Given that the story is told through his eyes, it’s an understandable and justifiable approach, but it still bothered me a little as a viewer that I don’t really know what’s going on with the parents. Overall it’s nice, but missing something that would make it memorable. (Cinema Mundi 2013, Brno)
