Movie description:
An eight year old boy encounters a series of harsh realities over the course of one profoundly transformational summer. Young Andrés has just lost his mother in an unforeseen tragedy so his grandmother Olga agrees to take him in. Also living with Olga is Andrés’ absentee father Raul, who spent most of his son’s childhood out of sight. As hard as Olga and Raul try to get Andrés to nap, the curious young boy insists that he isn’t tired, and begins to explore his new neighborhood. In time Andrés uncovers a secret so frightening the locals refuse to talk about it: somewhere behind his peaceful façade exists an illegal detention facility where people go, and never come out. When Andres’ innocent curiosity threatens dire repercussions, the lessons that he learns will give him greater appreciation for his grandmother’s strength, and a deeper understanding of his father’s shortcomings.
In the late seventies, Argentina was still in the grips of dictatorship. It was a society governed by secrets and fear. After the accidental death of his mother, Andrés (8) has to move in with his grandmother, Olga, and his estranged father Raul. Andrés, who doesn’t like to take a nap, wanders curiously through the neighborhood, where a secret detention center is hidden, something everyone knows, but no one dares mention. The boy’s curiosity ultimately places him in harms way. He will come to appreciate his grandmother’s strengths and understand his father’s weaknesses during a single summer where his courage and fears will be tested with lasting consequences for all. »Andres ...« is a multi-award winning film about a boy, pushed by circumstance to come of age quickly, in order to survive.
