Pacing is slow but intentional, allowing you to really soak in the tension between him and his estranged father, Sergio. Their interactions feel painfully real, and there's this undercurrent of unfulfilled expectations that just hangs there, you know?

Performances are raw and authentic, making you feel for Toño as he wrestles with feelings of abandonment and confusion. It's an intriguing watch for those interested in nuanced character studies.
