History:


After having spent seven years in prison for murder and armed robbery, Oso obtains its release on parole. His Natalia wife and her Alicia daughter live from now on with Sergio, unemployed who is involved in debt while playing the races. Oso hopes to reconquer them, to help them, but for that it must control its awkwardness and its irrepressible dashes of violence.

When Turco tries to involve it in a new "blow", it understands that the only possible exit to deal with the future of his/her daughter will be out the law.


Presented in Cannes in 2002, Sundance in 2003 and having gained the Great Price of American the Ibèro Festival of Montreal. Oso Rojo is more than one simple whodunnit.


Adrian Caetano draws up us before all the portrait of Argentina where the social difficulties invaded the front of the scene and also stresses the relations père/fille.


The way which the history has Caetano to bring towards the urban whodunnit is not without pointing out a certain Abel Ferrara and it finds in Julio Chavez a figure of desperado with flower of skin all that there is moreover just. One finds oneself with final in front of a brutal film from the moral violence which it releases, at the same time fascinating and testing!


Argentina still reserves to us an excellent film with this Oso moving, offering a glance purified on the feelings of a father having to reconcile his love and the problems of a not very advisable medium.


Superbly rythmé by an original music to retain, scenaristic qualities and of setting in scene of this film are crowned by interpretation époustouflante of Julio Chávez and Soledad Villamil, without forgetting remarkable the small girl playing Alicia.
