- AR, dir.: Pablo Trapero, act.: Martina Gusman, Bérénice Bejo, Graciela Borges
Pablo Trapero (Leonera, Elefante blanco) is a fixture at film festivals, but La quietud will not attract any new fans.
Yes, the film is rendered beautifully, the actors are talented, and there is more than enough sex. But the profusion of lies, secrets, betrayal, adultery, incest, accidents, and pregnancies that the rich Argentinian family of a dying father and a divaesque matriarch have to deal with, tends towards the caricatural. This is not remedied by a denouement that suddenly suggests a political interpretation.
