RIGA IFF SELECTION
Argentina is on the verge of a collapse, as is, perhaps, the rest of the world. A man joins a group of people in a strange training camp in the jungle. Trainees are taught various survival skills while also get to understand that when the society goes down its self-governing laws will no longer apply – a realization that awakens their darkest instincts. This Lucas Rinner’s minimalistic debut feature is like an ‘anti-blockbuster’: it takes the viewers’ attention away from the centre of events and leaves them pondering as to what were the reasons of the disaster in the first place, all the while keeping them on the edge of their seats throughout the entire movie. The film featured in the official competition of Rotterdam Film Festival.
