"RIVETING...A daring personal viewpoint...[The Blonds] immediately establishes [Carri] as an innovative auteur with a distinctive personality." - Pablo Suarez, Film Comment "REFRESHING...A celebration of ideals and idealists, of people who gave up their lives for what they believe in. It is also a tribute to the cinema itself." - Diana Sanchez, Toronto International Film Festival "One of the most original and creative examples of New Argentine Cinema, The Blonds is also great political cinema, in the most complex and embracing meaning of that term." - Diego Lerer, CLARIN (Argentina) "A true cinematographic manifesto. The Blonds takes a radical gamble; it speaks in first person about the personal and collective trauma of recent Argentine history." - Marcelo Panozzo, El Amante Cine |
