Cruel and beautiful story

Let’s talk about cruelty first:

With these two keywords, military government and dictatorship, everyone can basically make up for the cruelty and darkness of Uruguay in the 1970s and 1980s. Several key anti-government dissidents have been imprisoned by the military government in the basements of various military camps for twelve years. All kinds of insults, beatings, hunger, cold and intercourse are commonplace. Wearing a headgear and blindfolded means that most of the normal people...

Definitely 5 stars

Everyone has different life experiences and different views on the same thing! This movie looks great to me, it's definitely a 5-star rating!

I am over 30 years old and unmarried! I just changed a job, and recently I feel like I have seen through life and have no confidence in life, and then I start to addicted to games!

I don't want to socialize with people, and I can't interest you in anything. I used to like fitness, photography, guitar, and music! I don't know what's wrong,...

Can't use time to cover up everything

Although it is a bit heavy, the most impressive thing in the film is the few shots about shit. In the first time in prison, a prisoner was going to shit on a truck pretending to be a prisoner. The escort told him that you can only pull it in your pants. This little detail shows that their journey to detention was destined from the beginning. It's sorrow. The second time I started to adapt to prison life. In prison, I stood and pulled, and then I wondered why I didn't squat down. It might be...

Eleven years are very long, and two hours are indeed very short. In the film, time is constantly refreshing, and the protagonists are constantly persevering and looking for new motivation that can sustain themselves.

sharp. Especially the part about the problem of shitting a prisoner, reporting all the way up layer by layer, and finally every leader from small to large gathered in the toilet, and could not make a decision on how to make the prisoner poop...
