This movie has won the Jury Grand Prix (Silver Bear) and Best Actor (Daniel Hendler) awards at the 2004 Berlin Film Festival. Without doubt, it is representing Argentina in next year Oscar.

What I like about the movie?
------------------------------
-- The second half of the movie.
-- Despite being a comedy, it is peppered with philosophy.
-- The movie is pretty quick pace.
-- The performance of the male protagonist and his mother.
What may be problematic?
--------------------------
-- I believe a lot is lost in translation. A number of jokes are either very cultural or embedded in the Spanish language. Well, pardon my ignorance, the audience sometimes laugh and I do not know why ...
-- Likewise, the song that is sung by the grandmother is not translated/subtitled. Can someone please translate (if you have watched the movie)?
Note: Do not leave the theater when the credit rolls, the grandmother will appear. In fact, there is a pun, she asked, "Do you like it?" Is she refering to her song? or the movie ...
;PPP
