    When a family becomes concerned about their mother’s wellbeing in a retirement home, private investigator Romulo hires Sergio, an 83 year-old man who becomes a new resident-and a mole inside the home, who struggles to balance his assignment with becoming increasingly involved in the lives of several residents.

    I laughed as much as I cried. I was not expecting such a punch to the gut. It deserves an Oscar.
    Edit : Today we know that the film is nominated for the Oscar for the best documentary. Great news!

      @@stevepeachey6469 the fact that these people are alianted from the word in different levels. Many are abandoned or simply don't have anybody else. Some are affected by dementia and get desoriented. The good part is that they get good care at that place. There's a lot of humanity in spite of the seemingly bad aspects. The film is a Rollercoaster of emotions, really.

    If you still don’t watch it, then you must. I guess older people is seen different in advanced countries, but for sure there are common topics independant of the place. It is incredible how blind we are regarding situations that sooner or later we will live. Congratulations to the director, the team and the great grannies who work in this hearted film.

    Beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time... It saddened me to think that most of these beautiful elderly people have family members who don't even visit.. The loneliness to see their loved ones was heart wrenching especially when Sergio showed the lady photos of her kids and she knew them all clearly by name at first glance.... the young and the old are the most vulnerable in society we will all be in their shoe's one day so cherish and visit them as often as possible they brought you into the world loved and gave you everything it's not until the chair is empty you realise it's too late!!

    Es absolutamente hermosa, enternecedora y una total reflexión para todos. El mensaje acerca de la soledad, acerca de la falta de muchos hijos cuando sus padres más los necesitan, es para tener más empatía dejar las excusas absurdas de siempre al no visitarlos. Por otro lado, ver cómo sí hay personas que se toman el tiempo de celebrarlos, de regalarles un día diferente de vez en cuándo, verlos disfrutar, bailar, reírse es una belleza.

      @@SiBiDiBiDiPiDi I don't doubt that they live there but that doesn't mean it still can't be a story that was plotted out and that scenes weren't staged and or reenacted which to me betrays what a documentary is. I still want to plan to watch the film later this week and I won't give a firm judgement until do but based on the trailer it seems to be closer to reality television than being an actual objective documentary. I've been a background person on reality shows there is no script all the things said are spontaneous but they do tell the people to get from point A to point B for a scene. I hope this is more objective than that but some also say just the presence of cameras themselves will make people act differently.

      @@andrewthezeppo As said by Lina9Music, they had cameras waaay before Sergio, the main "character", arrived. They told them they were filming some kind of movie, but as there were no actors the people living there just got used to the cameras and forgot about them. They're old, they didn't care that much. They just did what they were doing every day while sometimes a cameraman pointed at them.
      If you see the movie you'll realize that everything that happens there is completely real.
      However, i do think that there was some sort of script for a couple of scenes.

    I loved it. But later I knew that co-star Rómulo Aitken had been a torturer, during the time he served as operative agent for "The Office", and since then I can't like it, out of respect for the victims of the Pinochets dictatorship. Sure, a person who has tortured others may very well appear in a documentary, but then he must appear with his own identity and his own past. Here Aitken is portrayed only as a charming private detective, but his past makes the movie completely disgusting to me.
