When Constanza (Natalia Oreiro) arrives to remote camp in the mountains led by palaeontologist Carlota (Mercedes Morán), she is confronted by hostile environment and is labeled as intruder immediately. Constanza's purpose is to evaluate the work of Carlota and to see how the funds are being used, as there is doubt about their proper allocation. Carlota takes this personally and has no interest in collaborating with Constanza.
The mood changes when another player appears - Fredy (Diego Velázquez) - old rival of Carlota and thief of historical artefacts. His presence unites both palaeontologists and together they need to stop Fredy from disrupting the land that Carlota protects for years.
The movie premise starts very well and is intriguing, especially playing on the mythological note of uncovering potential remains of a mystical creature. The lead actress duo is absolutely superb. Natalia Oreiro portrays her character very well and captures the determination and strive to find the truth.
The director Matías Lucchesi managed to put together a small thriller of four characters with western elements. The story develops well but at certain point is left hanging a bit without having additional space to go into. Nevertheless, the movie has fantastic soundtrack composed by Hernan Segret that fits perfectly the western undertone of the movie.
I truly enjoyed the cinematography, the movie is fully shot in exteriors of Argentina's Mendoza and Uspallata region, which gives the movie additional layer and the landscape serves almost as another character.
I recommend this movie to anyone who likes adventure thrillers with mythical undertones and absolutely superb acting and score.
