Synopsis

Right from its original idea, The Clues - Las Pistas - Lanhoyij - Nmitaxanaxac surprises you. How come no one had ever thought of including the different cultures that inhabit Argentina to shape up a story about betrayal, rescues, double agents, and varied, imprecise intrigues? That’s the game suggested by Sebastian Lingiardi’s triple-named (from its wichi and Toba translations) first film, in which a series of apparently harmless characters weave a net of imprecise connections and goals, a plot of unknown limits that turns paranoia into a concrete reality. Shot with a supreme elegance –as every spy film should be– but without ever losing its connection to the environment where it takes place, the story unfolds basing itself on clues: those for the spectator and those for the main characters. The spirit of Hugo Santiago’s Invasion wanders through some of the film’s moments, but only to give its blessing to this attempt at going beyond mere imitation and the boldness of a different, gripping adventure.
