Juan Jose Campanella's film follows a retired court investigator in Buenos Aires who decides to write a novel about a rape and murder he could never close decades earlier. The case pulls him back through the years to the victim's husband, a suspect who got away, and the woman he worked beside and never told he loved. It moves between past and present as both threads circle the same questions of justice and regret. The mystery is gripping on its own, and there is one unbroken stadium chase shot that is genuinely astonishing, but the heart of it is everything left unsaid for twenty-five years.
