Film: Born and bread, British Film Institute, Southbank, London
In Buenos Aires, a successful interior designer's life falls apart after he suffers a traffic accident.

Director Pablo Trapero provides a study of the ordeals of grief, identity and the possibilities of moving forward after trauma, realised in a landscape as brooding as it is breathtaking.
