Las pistas - Lanhoyij - Nmitaxanaxac (2010)

Already from his original idea, The tracks - Lanhoyij - Nmitaxanaxac surprises. How has it occurred to anyone before to include the different cultures that coexist in Argentina to give shape to a history of betrayals, rescues, double agents and various and imprecise intrigues? That is the game that proposes the first opera of tripartite name (in his translations to Wichi and Toba) by Sebastián Lingiardi, in which a series of seemingly inoffensive characters are weaving a network of connections and imprecise objectives, a web of limits strangers that turns the sensation of paranoia into a concrete reality. Filmed with supreme elegance - as spy films must be filmed - but never losing contact with the medium in which it takes place, the story advances on the basis of clues: those that the spectator receives and those that the protagonists receive. The spirit of Invasion by Hugo Santiago goes through some moments, but only to bless the attempt to go beyond the mere imitation and risk of a different and compelling adventure.
