El agua del fin del mundo

Paula Siero makes her feature debut with a story that could easily go off the rails into melodramatic sentiment. But The Water at the End of the World is everything except that. Powerfully and energetically acted by the whole cast and with effective camerawork, the result is a convincing psychological drama in which love, disgust, anger and understanding flow together into one emotion.
Laura and Adriana are sisters. They live together in a poor neighbourhood in Buenos Aires where everyone has trouble keeping their heads above water. The twenty-something Laura (Guadalupe Docampo) works in a pizza restaurant and maintains her slightly older and very ill sister (Diana Lamas). When Laura and Adriana get bad news about the course of Adriana's incurable disease, they decide to make a journey.
First, Laura has to get to gather enough money for the journey and, on her quest, she meets the alcoholic accordionist Martin, to whom she feels attracted. When Martin also meets Adriana, a conflict arises between the sisters.
