Full Plot Details

Ennui-ridden singer Reni (Cecilia Bengolea) falls in love with handsome young street hustler Andrés (Leonardo Brezicki) in this artsy film from Argentine director Veronica Chen. Reni first spies Andrés servicing a male client in the ATM kiosk where he does most of his business (the homoerotic scenes are captured mainly via the bank's security camera). They become friends and together wander the Buenos Aires streets, philosophizing, striking disaffected poses, and eventually falling into bed together. Reni tries being a prostitute herself but she isn't as enthralled with getting paid as Andrés. Eventually this comes between them. Argentine director Veronica Chen also wrote and edited the film, which achieves an almost abstract sense of beauty at times via extreme slow-motion shots of Andrés wandering the neon-drenched avenidas--standing, rollerblading, and waiting to hustle and or be hustled. Lovers of international art films will enjoy the philosophical, faux-Godardian attitude and dissonant, heavily percussive score. Frequent shots of the attractive leads lounging around in their underwear provides extra sex appeal, and may invite comparisons to the films of Larry Clark and the advertisements of Calvin Klein.

Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Kevin ThomasA venturesome, beautifully realized psychological mood piece that reveals its first-time feature director's understanding of the expressive power of the camera.
TV Guide Magazine - 4/10 by Ken FoxThe film is a gorgeous nocturne of surprisingly little substance, a sleek advert for youthful anomie that never quite equals the sum of its pretensions.
Film Journal International - 4/10 by David NohChen films the resolutely downbeat Smokers Only with every indulgent, indie trick in the book.
Variety - 4/10 by Dennis HarveyA walk on the "dark side" that moves far more slowly than limited character insight requires.
New York Daily News - 4/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanA jumbled composite of blurred images, poetic yearnings and metaphoric dialogue.
Village Voice - 3/10 by Nick RutiglianoDetached performances and a murky sound mix further the sense of suspended animation.
L.A. Weekly - 2/10 by Mark OlsenThere is a great divide between a film about people in the throes of aimless, meandering lives and a film that is simply aimless and meandering. Smokers Only never acknowledges, let alone bridges, that gap.
New York Times - 2/10 by Dave KehrToo predictable to leave much of an impression.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UGreat movie I saw in New York when on honeymoon. Seemed to reflect my feelings at the time. I understood completely the sacrifice the girl made!
User Review - 10/10 by Leonardo - Malacay - SBuenos Aires el gran pulpo! amor de ratos y ratos de amor al mejor postor
