This Argentinian dramedy gives us elements of Woody Allenās nervous comedy and Cassavetesā melodramatic roller coaster in a storm of egos that takes place on one decisive weekend in the lives of Juana, a popular actress about to star in an important theater production, and her husband Roman, a director suffering from writerās block. The coupleās daughter, Lila, serves as a mirror reflecting her parentsā frustrations and joys. The long takes, atmospheric music, and stellar performances, give a poignant, sometimes hilarious portrayal of a family as they attempt to negotiate their egos with their marriage and artistic lives.
