Full Plot Details

The film is seen through the eyes of a ten-year-old boy, Harry (Matías del Pozo), who does not know that Argentina's 1976 coup d'état is impacting his life. After witnessing the "disappearance" of dissident friends, a human rights lawyer (Ricardo Darín) and his research scientist wife (Cecilia Roth) flee the city and hide from the military police in a vacant summer house. With them are their two kids: Harry, who is fascinated with the escape artistry of Harry Houdini, and El Enano, his little brother. (Translated as "Little Guy" in the English subtitles, played by Milton de la Canal. The actual translation is "dwarf".) The family adopts new identities and attempts to lead a normal life. Later, they are joined by a student who is using the alias Lucas (Tomás Fonzi). Their new life is difficult, but a visit with their estranged grandparents (Fernanda Mistral and Héctor Alterio) reveals that they are still a close-knit family. Subtly hinted, however, and used as a metaphor, is the mother's constant smoking and El Enano's renewed bed-wetting. Both serve to show how stressful and precarious their situation is.

User Review - 10/10 by Mirla Hbellisima y muy bien contada! me encanta!
User Review - 10/10 by Luisa MComo siempre, las historias de amor entre padres e hijos resulta ser de lo mas hermosa. Combinando lo triste y loco de las dictaduras suramericanas. 100% recomendable
User Review - 10/10 by Jose HCecilia Roth ("All about my mother") is an excellent actress. The film is full of meaningful metaphores that convey much more than what is said expressly. The story of a family stuggling to keep together duirng the terror of the "Dirty War" in Argentina in the late 70s. The story is told from the ten year old Pedro (aka Harry) boy.
User Review - 10/10 by Anthony VHermosa pieza cinematografica sobre la dictadura Argentina con sólo menos de un minuto de botas militares. El fascismo inunda de miedo hasta el ultimo rincon del mundo. Un niño intenta mudarse a "Kamchtaka" con el imaginario vuelo de su imaginacion, un juego y un libro de magia; sus padres tendrán que quedarse. Otra impecable apuesta de Piñeyro, con Ricardo Darin, Cecilia Roth y Hector Alterio.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UThe witch hunt after the 1976 military coup seen by a child whose parents are leftist intellectuals. Very nice point of view.
User Review - 10/10 by Maringrid VUna hermosa historia detrás de una desgracia nacional. La historia de una familia y como unida lucha por sus ideas y valores.
User Review - 10/10 by Thomaz NA family drama and a bildungsfilm, yes, but make no mistake, this is a deeply political movie. Compares favourably to Chile's "Machuca", which has a somewhat similar plot. "Kamchatka" found a new (and better) way to tell an old (and sad) story. The Darin-Roth duo works extremely well, and only hearts of stone will not be moved by the final sequences.
User Review - 10/10 by Belén AUn punto de vista diferente... cómo un niño es testigo de la lucha de sus padres en un pais sumido en la represión... Estaremos condenados a convertirnos en escapistas?
User Review - 10/10 by Linda Cbeautiful. one of my favorites ever. wish i could see it again but I am in the US.
User Review - 10/10 by Izzam AAn Argentian masterpiece. I saw it at the Vancouver Film Fest.
