    Body liberation = liberation of desire? The form can't support this barren...

    Not the Refnization of speculation, but it feels more like Almodovarization. I don't remember how many times I've sighed, but it's really useful to have the characters dance over and over in the...

    3.5/5. Indeed WTF. The logic of the characters in the film is very strange. In the end, it seems that they gave a happy ending, which is probably unacceptable to most people, but it is exactly what I like. A flamboyant, sexy, ignorant of morality, and even a little anarchic The Ema is very charming, and I also appreciate the charm of the heroine Marianna herself and her good acting skills in shaping what may be one of the most complex characters in film history. The disadvantage may be that the...

    Audiovisual is good! After reading it, I want to learn reggae, this female image is very...

    Flame jets, physical desires, reproductive instincts, male and female killers, family collapse and re-connection, valueless judgments, direct senses, a new generation of survival philosophy to find children, reggae beats that prisoner and my...

    A warm story, but Laraine is too addicted to plastic arts, and the break is too inconsistent. The last paragraph is naturally a particularly good bloom, but unfortunately the whole film failed to maintain such kinetic...

    Unexpectedly, La Reyn’s new work is taking the line of sensuality, which is consistent with the aesthetic orientation of the Latin American "uninhibited" directors (Regadas, Iscarat, Mascaro). The drama is full of large-scale sex scenes, as well as open relationship family and emotional values. The extremely bloody plot is absolutely jaw-dropping, and the most prominent is the proliferation of electronic music, which makes the plot intensity soar at the same time It is also gradually...

    No script foreshadowing, no character creation, from the beginning, I have been patronizing with modern dance and unintelligible lines, and I can't empathize at all. Those pretending to be advanced can't fool...

    Two and a half stars. The choreographer can be the co-screenwriter of this play. The best dance is this dance. When you hear the heroine say its meaning, you feel that dancing at any time can promote the plot and lyricism, and the script itself It's rather vague. When I usually can't restore how a script should be written, it will be regarded as the product of the director's complete willfulness. He surpasses a certain standard. It's what he thinks. There are a lot of plots, and then the modern...

Ema quotes

  • Ema: I'm going to horrify you.

    Aníbal: Horrify me?

    Ema: When you know what I'm doing, and why. You will be horrified.

    Aníbal: Why wait? Scare me now.

  • Gastón: It's prison music. It's music to listen to in prison.

    [imitates beats]

    Gastón: The whole damn day. To keep you from thinking. To forget about the prison you're in and recreate it in your mind. To forget about the bars you have in front of you. That's it.

    [imitates beats]

    Gastón: It's a hypnotic rhythm that turns you into a fool. It's an illusion of freedom. So that people don't think. Yes, no, sex, drugs, yes. Heroin yes, orgies yes. But the next day, boom! You have to go to work. And you were convinced by someone. That if you moved your little hips, you'd be freer. But no. Not at all. It's falling asleep in defeat. Living in Ibiza. Picking up and moving to LA. To take selfies there all the time. And to do exactly the same thing. It's a culture of violence. Where women become purely sexual objects. And men are beasts who always screw women over. All while trying to fuck them. That's just what they want. That's the rhythm.

    [imitates beats]

    Gastón: "Don't rebel, don't think. Give it to me, give it to me." I can't believe you're dancing reggaeton, for Christ's sake! Everything we studied and felt. Everything we've practiced. And with you! All those damn fights we had. All the struggles. How we laughed at all of them! You laughed at all these girls. The very same ones. Laughing your ass off, huh. Screw them! Screw reggaeton. Fuck everything! I'm sick of this.

    Ema: Polo liked reggaeton.

    Gastón: Who is Polo?

    Sonia: You saw us dancing and you said, "Nice." What's nice? I don't know what that means. I guess you do. Because you're smarter than us, right? The only thing I know is, I don't like what I feel when I see something nice. Now I like dancing much more. Because it's like fucking, happy. With a flushed face, cussing. Hot, crazy, sexy, moving. And all of the sudden, bam! I'm surrounded by people. And they're all as horny as me. Moving as if they were fucking. But with music. It's delicious, motherfucker. That's life. And I dance life. Today, you're alive and you're here, because someone at some point got hot and had an orgasm. And today, that orgasm can be danced.
