Why watch this film?
Based on the novel by Antonio Di Benedetto written in 1956, on Don Diego de Zama, a Spanish officer of the seventeenth century settled in Asunción, who awaits his transfer to Buenos Aires.
"After nine long years of waiting, director Lucrecia Martel is back with this playful feature film. 'Zama' is a sophisticated, well-crafted movie with a great cast, and is not suitable for any audience. A production that may not be easily understood, requires deep reflection, making the plot even more engaging to the cineaste's lovers. It's an enigmatic, confusing, heavy and also very passionate movie."
