This suspenseful Italian crime drama is set in a Colombian river town and chronicles the series of events that led up to murder. Based on a novel by distinguished author Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the tale begins in the present as a middle-aged doctor returns to the village after a twenty-year absence to investigate the murder that occurred just before he left.
The director undertook to film Marquez, and this fact was both intriguing and frightening. Expectations from the film were low, I was sure that I would see a plotless muddle "for film festivals." In fact, it turned out well, the atmosphere is conveyed well, the plot too, although both in the story and in the film there is little action.
