Am I Missing Something?

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

While the casting 'story line' could certainly have benefited well from some kind of climax or conclusion, this documentary by Jose Luis Torres Leiva is a beautiful exploration of the island of Chiloe. Its inhabitants' daily lives, the social divide and love stories, the island's history will keep you engaged throughout the film. My personal favorite was this semi-metafictional flavor added with the film this 'director' says he's about to do and the auditions for this movie (that I still don't know for certain if it's real). There is something about the lead repeating the story that made me wonder whether it would turn out that it was about him. And that added mystery.
