Conflicts arise everywhere because there is not a single area in this character's life that does not contain the possibility of an explosion. Everyone at some point wants to deceive him, they attack him, they have him in their sights. The main reason for his problems is that he is a man of codes in a world that no longer has them. You may not even be able to make your child understand that small but vital teaching. Affiliation is a clear theme of the film, and this impossibility of transmitting wisdom from generation to generation reveals the degradation of relationships in a community in which respect no longer exists. Politics, sports, friendship, love: everything has become an excuse for selfishness and a battlefield in which only the worst survive. - Lautaro Garcia Candela and Lucas Granero
