Esto no es Berlín

It explores suggestively and frankly the rarefied atmospheres of what was the 80's musical and artistic counterculture. [Full Review in Spanish]

Despite its flaws, this is Hari Sama's best film to date. [Full Review in Spanish]

Sama manages to make this story a hard and much less romantic reflection on a country that has not managed to be. [Full Review in Spanish]

This is not Berlin can be a bit disconcerting at times, but it's the wild version of of a good storyteller's adolescence. [Full review in Spanish]

An exciting coming of age story, that pays tribute to an LGBT subculture without fetishising it from a straight character's perspective.

Smacks of autobiography without reflection.

Throbbing dance scenes can be wearing and the basic story -- libidinous liberation leads to near tragedy -- hardly feels groundbreaking.

[Its] superficial shock value masks the real pain of finding your voice.

Evocative and intermittently emotive, locating the heart of adolescent pain and the difficulties of finding one's way in a predatory world.

A chiaroscuro coming-of-age tale set in turbulent 1980s Mexico City and a fine bookend to Alfonso Cuaron's Roma.
