It’s a rarity, because films made in Peru usually don’t premiere in Argentina, and even fewer comedies curbs it is a co-production with our country, and it is not a simple comedy. The poster doesn’t help, but the film with Benjamin Amedeo It has its own dramatic edges.
We see.
Martina (Ximena Palomino) and Sofía (Magdyel Ugáz) are a couple who are trying to get pregnant. Nothing is easy. They have tried to invest a lot of money in artificial insemination, but the results are not coming.
Perhaps it is worth clarifying, because in some dialogues it is made explicit, that the same-parent families in Peru have not reached the same consensus in that society as in ours. If even one of the protagonists hides their relationship.
So mess with the issue of homosexuality, the desire for motherhood and include a stranger – and deluded – in the quest for pregnancy in a clearly complicated combo.
In Cusco
The girls win a trip to Cuzco while dining in a restaurant with Martina’s father – who doesn’t like his daughter’s relationship with Sofia -. And there, on the heights, they meet a tourist, Facundo (Benjamín Amadeo), a nice Argentine, who wants to get rid of his fears and attract good things after his girlfriend (Vetrano candle) deceived you.
But the best thing Facundo has is his wits, or his gift for ever. Because when Martina “convinces” him to have sex, she won’t just want sex.
And when he finally returns to Buenos Aires, he finds out that Martina is pregnant, she will want to take care of her paternity.
The film by Gianfranco Quattrini, which he directed Chicha your mother Y forestsand who participated with a short film stories 2, tries to oscillate between comedy and drama, leaning more towards the former. And the remarkable thing is that the film moves away from certain clichés, and if it falls into others, it is precisely those related to comedy, not to the romantic relationship between the protagonists.
Amadeo is not out of tune. Actor and musician, ex Almost angels and son of the politician Eduardo Amadeo, he gives Facundo everything Facundo asks for. He has the weight of a character who fits like a wedge into an established relationship, and the performer has been able to get the most out of the guy who leaves everything for what he thinks is worth doing.
