MovieWhile looking after a friend’s house, Vladimir (a young Colombian) wakes up one morning to find a gigantic stone sitting on the terrace, next to the pool. He has no idea where it came from. Disturbed and intrigued, he calls Cecilia (his ex-partner), who is pregnant with her new partner’s child, to help him figure out what to do.

It might be a brief exchange, or perhaps just any place. This is a story that begins early in the morning. A rock appeared on the terrace. A giant rock. Miguel calls his ex-girlfriend and asks for help. But this is only a part.

Movie4.4ComedyDramaIt is no coincidence that the second feature by Argentinian Melisa Liebenthal begins with a quote from “Duino Elegies” by Rilke, who was concerned with existential angst. And, more prosaically, Marina, the film’s young protagonist, is faced with similar anxiety. In fact, her problem is her face. One morning, she discovers her face has changed, and she can no longer recognise herself. Not even her mother can, who bumps into her on the street and says hello to her like she would to any stranger (deadpan, surreal humor is part of the film’s recipe). Marina is thus forced to confront her identity: who is she? Is she determined by her parent’s DNA or by her ID card? Can she be identified by a family portrait, by biometrics or the love of those around her, including her Colombian boyfriend? Is she prettier now?
