"Visceral, sanguine, extremely well directed. An essential film. Caetano is extremely talented." —Walter Salles, director of The Motorcycle Diaries "Dazzling! Full of restless energy… Reminiscent of Taxi Driver." —Jamie Russell, bbc.co.uk A starkly realistic story of an illegal immigrant from Bolivia who lands a job with a greasy spoon on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, Bolivia poignantly depicts the world of poverty, racism and violence that characterize his newfound reality. Much like Do the Right Thing, tempers flare as discontented working-class people barrel toward tragedy. Shot in a lyrical, neo-realistic style, this taut film is an urgent and timely drama of life in Argentina, a nation in crisis that in the last few years has reached unprecedented poverty levels with vast unemployment, bankruptcy, and a shrinking economy. A multiple prizewinner in film festivals worldwide, Bolivia suggests that an important new voice is being heard. This second feature by Adrián Caetano, one of Argentina"s rising stars in its miraculously fecund movie-making community, manages to be both powerful and understated.
