Kuri and Brockenshire tells us how it is to manage a four-hands-direction of a film with a defined and blocked budget and a determined schedule that cannot be moved, either. Some choices were forced but luckily so, as the film is well paced and intriguing and with a smart ending.

ONE SISTER. In a small Argentinian backwater town, a young woman sets out on a solitary search for her sister who has disappeared without a trace. When the family’s car appears in flames on the bank of a nearby river, Alba falls deeper into a world of bureaucratic frustrations, bringing her to the edge of despair. Her journey drags her back to the river, where a silent witness seems to provide the only calm that’s left.
