Ko Technik It's a potentially wonderful movie, that becomes quickly feeble and moronic through this "well put together" scenario. Those bloody contradictions, that any logical mind can not carry for 100 minutes, are so obvious and exasperating. Why would I look for a kid that I want to kill, but I won't, with 6 other people, pushing wheelbarrows? Here is another one, I am Gus, I gave the kid a phone to call him, but when my boss asks me to get back the boxes, I won't call him, why? why so much irrational acts? And it goes on and on, it takes all the beauty of immersion, you just sit there waiting for the end in this beautiful jungle/market where everyone is trying to get a chance of living. The acting is perfect, I loved the characters and the connections between them, the film would be a great one if those incoherences weren't there, dommage.

SnoopyStyle Victor is a poor kid who moves boxes on his cart in the market. He needs money to get a cell phone with a camera. He gets a job to transport 7 boxes. It's very sketchy. He gets a half of a torn US $100 bill. He's told to guard it with his life until he gets a call. Another porter is after the boxes. With his wacky friend Liz's help, he tries to stay one step ahead of everybody.The desperation for money is palpable and I love that he needs the money for a cell phone. It's not something that comes to my mind right away. However it's so obvious if the kid doesn't have one. It makes the movie even more compelling. The movie is great technically. There is real kinetic energy in the camera work. The story is solid and full of thrills. There is also a bit of gallows humor. It's a terrific indie.

ikeppl-1 A low-budget yet high quality movie. From the guts of the impenetrable south American rain forest we have this Pulp-Fictionish Paraguayan flick. Compelling, thrilling, breathtaking. Great acting while it unveils the social reality of people in the borderline of poverty striving to survive... and provide for their families. The veil of the action flick will soon fall showing the naked truth... for the keen eye. For those (like me) who had the chance to visit this country painted with different shades of black and white it will be a sort of revival into the street market with its color, musical "guarany" accent, smells and a sort of human flock growing around you. Scary sometimes but always, always, thrilling. A must-see.

renedelagza0 I saw this movie in a festival in town a couple of weeks ago, and i wasn't sure of what i was going to see.I was hooked on the screen from the first scenes and never let me down. The film is about a boy, Victor, who works in a market carrying merchandise in a dolly. He needs money but hasn't got any jobs yet, until he gets an offer to carry 7 boxes with unknown contents for a 100 dollar payment, and that gets him into complicated situations where his life could be in danger.The characters are very real, and the situations, some are funny, some are thrilling, but is an exciting story as a whole. I loved the camera work and the acting of the cast.A very entertaining film, and a nice surprise from Paraguay.
