Drama, 28-Oct-2019
Diego is humiliated and punished by his father after telling him what happened. Moisés Aisemberg directs “Guilt,” a searing drama about boyhood cruelty and the societal forces behind it. On a camping trip, two kids and their fathers spend some time in the great outdoors. The boys are mostly left on their own, to fish, ride four-wheelers, and argue over their favorite soccer stars. As the day progresses though, the mood darkens when one of the boys begins provoking the other in unsettling ways. Set against picturesque woodsy vistas and idyllic horse rides (an unexpected landscape for a pitch black exploration of abuse and repression), Aisemberg slowly amps up the tension and atmosphere until it culminates painfully in an abandoned lookout tower. -KA.
