Movie Reviews

New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoClandestine Childhood is the impressive first feature by Argentine director Benjamín Avila.
New York Times - 6/10 by Manohla DargisWhen a filmmaker proves as reluctant as Mr. Ávila to speak up about the past, to engage with its full complexity, it can be hard to hear what he's saying.
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Mark OlsenÁvila can't quite thread the needle between telling his personal story and connecting it to larger social currents.
Time Out - 5/10 by David FearIf such outré flourishes don't fully lift the story past the limitations of innocence-lost storytelling, they do suggest Ávila is an artist worth keeping an eye on.
User Review - 10/10 by Ivan SI loved this film. It gives a very good picture of what Argentina was like during the dictatorship. Natalia Oreiro does a very good job.
User Review - 10/10 by Nishlank JOne of the best movies of the New Argentine Cinema. This movie talks in an excellent way of the hard years of the Latin Amà (C)rica Story. Natalia Oreiro and Ernesto Alterio are great in their perfomances.
User Review - 8/10 by Diego F. VInfancia clandestina es una película seria, tierna y conmovedora. Basada en hechos reales, el filme se centra en la historia de una pareja de militantes de izquierda que después del exilio deciden regresar (junto con sus hijos) de nuevo a su país con la firme intención de continuar en pie de lucha durante el mal llamado proceso de reorganización nacional. No se trata de otra película más sobre la dictadura militar en la Argentina, se trata de 'la historia oficial' contada desde el punto de vista de una de sus víctimas, Ernesto (Teo Gutierrez Romero) un niño que nos cuenta sus sucesos tal como los ve e imagina: sus amores, sus miedos, sus romances, sus muertes. Con todo, el director Benjamín Ávila nos regala un coctel de imágenes impresionantes apoyándose en buenos movimientos de cámara combinados con unas excelentes graficas animadas que nos sumergen de lleno en la atmosfera del personaje principal. Buenas actuaciones: Natalia 'muñecabrava' Oreiro cumple con su papel, se resalta la del tío Beto (Ernesto Alterio) por ser el personaje catalizador dentro de la historia, y se celebra la interpretación del niño Teo Gutierrez Romero. Buen filme.
User Review - 8/10 by Andres VClandestine Childhood is a coming of age story with a difference. As the title suggests, it is growing up under secrecy. The film is set in 70's Argentina where the military junta rules the country and opposition groups are clandestinely active. We follow a 12 year old son of one of these revolutionary couples who is growing up under a cloud of secrecy to protect the identity of his parents. The boy is a normal child who wants to invite his friends home, have a girlfriend and all that but can not do so due to the risk of exposing his parents who are wanted by the military dictatorship. The politics and the history, though ever present, are kept firmly in the background and the film focuses on the boy's story. The fact that the film is based partly on the director's own childhood, and specially knowing (as he told the audience after a screening) that his mother was one of the "disappeared" during that era, makes the film very poignant. An added bonus is the great music in the film
User Review - 8/10 by Oscar GA pesar de sus problemas, esta pelicula demuestra el nivel del cine latinoamericano.
User Review - 8/10 by Peter NA deep, dark and touching story told subtly, creatively and simply... with touches of light... through the eyes of a child.
