Why watch this film?
Anaïs Pareto's debut feature film is, in equal parts, a melancholic homage to mature friendship and a refreshingly honest look at male emotional fragility - something rarely seen in Mexican fiction of any medium. 'Sinvivir' - whose title already gives away the mental state of its characters - follows an absurdist style that will surely remind you of Fernando Eimbcke's movies ('Duck Season', 'Club Sandwich'), though it touches on serious matters such as depression and suicide. The claustrophobic setting enhances the anxiety experienced by these characters, who still find new ways to look at life between them. Kudos go to the trio of main actors that manage to submerge us with sensitivity into this particular emotional state: Antonio López Torres ('El Señor de los Cielos'), Horacio García-Rojas ('La 4a Compañía') and Pedro Hernández ('Cría Puercos'), winner of the Best Actor award at the Morelia International Film Festival for this movie.
