Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for music lovers and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 2 hr 25 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Hugo Santiago and writers Juan José Saer and Jorge Semprún move back and forth between Paris and the city of Aquilea in a shadowy fable about exile. The frontier between one city and the other begins to blur after Bandoneonist Rodolfo Mederos is visited by his sister, a member of a guerrilla organization.
