A dramatization of real-life events, this Mexican film's disturbing subject matter will make for a difficult watch. Daniel and Ana are siblings from an affluent and close-knit family. The action opens in a genial fashion with Ana preparing for her impending nuptials and Daniel timidly experimenting sexually with his high-school girlfriend. But as this psychological drama unfolds, the pair shares an experience that causes their relationship to implode. Starring TV actress Marimar Vega, and Gael Garcia Bernal's little brother Dario as Daniel, this low-budget, delicately directed debut feature from Michel Franco is probably a good choice for those that prefer Antichrist to Avatar.
