El invierno de los raros

A sleepy, scruffy provincial town in the Argentinean countryside, in the middle of a cold winter. Most of the inhabitants live according to a fixed routine in which the days pass by almost unnoticed. Each new day is like any other.
But then for six people, originally without them noticing, something really starts to change. They wrestle with conflicts that result from personal problems from the past, such as love affairs, family quarrels, difficult friendships and other emotional stresses. We follow them for three days in a meandering storyline in which their lives cross at various moments.
The young and promising Argentine director Rodrigo Guerrero chooses the popular mosaic structure, but also integrates new media into his work. The soundtrack, with its restrained ambient pop, covers the film like an iPod blanket. The metallic blue images are dreamy and soft at the beginning, but in the course of the film the mood gets darker and grimmer.
