Whisky (2004)

Posted on 03:36 by uthpa
Highly Recommended
Uruguay/Germany/Argentina
Feature Film
Directors: Juan Pablo Rebella, Pablo Stoll
Writers: Gonzalo Delgado, Juan Pablo Rebella, Pablo Stoll
Cinematographer: Bárbara Álvarez
Composer: Pequeña Orquesta Reincidentes
Cast: Andrés Pazos, Mirella Pascual, Jorge Bolani

When his younger brother flies in from Brazil for their mother’s unveiling ceremony, an ageing sock factory owner asks one of his employees to pose as his wife for a few days; all goes smoothly until an impromptu trip to an off-season tourist resort brings simmering sibling rivalry (almost) to the fore, in Rebella and Stoll’s quietly funny, gently moving, and subtly perceptive film, filled with melancholically expressive mise en scène.
