## Description

Product Description









Deep in the lush river jungles of Argentina, Alvaro lives a solitary existence fishing and harvesting reeds. What sets him apart from the rest of his village is that he is gay. There are no other gay men in his world, his only means of expression is with the occasional outsider who passes through. Most of these men come via the river taxi El León, who s captain. El Turu is a mean man with a homophobic streak and a secret. Attitudes begin to change when illegal loggers appear in the jungle and El Turu accuses Alvaro of aiding them. Then again El Turu s attitude seemed to have already changed since he began watching Alvaro more closely in the shower. This is a world where there are no signs of gay life, just men as men. These two men must battle each other over land and respect. Alvaro must live his life as he does, going from one encounter to the next. El Turu works to hide his secret and earn his crew s respect.  Santigo Otheguy s feature film is ground breaking by Argentinean standards. Never before has such an beautiful and erotic film been made about men who openly share thier feelings, both mental and physical. A must not just for gay audiences, but for all film buffs alike.

*by W***A on Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2015*

It's a somber film from a world of experience with which Americans will be little familiar, dark, spare, with a kind of fateful inevitability about it.  I'd recommend simply that you look at the summary details and decide whether it's for you or not.  The "homosexual" aspect of it is really a subordinate theme--it's the isolation, the monotony, the lack of human variety that matter more.  Brutality and hypocrisy and loss emerge naturally from what is, after all, a fairly impoverished world, one that progressively impoverishes the people in it.  The fútbol games are not enough to create the more humanly rich life of which the river dwellers and reed cutters and miserable migrants have been deprived.  Save it for a thoughtful moment.

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2015*

In a very quiet way, this was a great movie.  I had no idea what to expect but it intrigued me so I gave it a shot.  I was glad I did.  It's English subtitled but so much was said through expression and atmospheric sense, and there wasn't a whole lot of dialogue, so that was no big deal.  The lead character was excellent and did a superb job.  In fact, the entire cast was great in an understated way.  This is also an interesting cultural experience as it's set in an environment and part of the world I'm not familiar with.  I will warn you it's in black and white, but after getting used to that, I realized it added to the movie rather than took away from it.  The theme of the movie is modern but the setting isn't.  It all creates for a very interesting experience.  I really liked this movie and am sure I will watch it again at some point.

    La Leon Needs More Lighting
  

*by G***H on Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2018*

Well, my issue with it was that it's filmed too dark.  I like black and white movies very much, but even in black and white, one still has to be able to see what's going on.  Most of the reviews say that it's too darkly filmed, and I agree with that.  Some people didn't get what was going on in the film, and I think a lot of that had to do with how dark the film was filmed.
