A starkly realistic story of an illegal immigrant from Bolivia who lands a job with a greasy spoon on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, Bolivia poignantly depicts the world of poverty, racism and violence that characterize his newfound reality. Much like Do the Right Thing, tempers flare as discontented working-class people barrel toward tragedy. Shot in a lyrical, neo-realistic style, this taut film is an urgent and timely drama of life in Argentina, a nation in crisis that in the last few years has reached unprecedented poverty levels with vast unemployment, bankruptcy, and a shrinking economy. A multiple prizewinner in film festivals worldwide, Bolivia suggests that an important new voice is being heard. This second feature by Adrián Caetano, one of Argentina's rising stars in its miraculously fecund movie-making community, manages to be both powerful and understated.

This transfer is actually very acceptable, and appears to be progressive. The limited production quality is very similar to the theatrical print. It is intentionally grainy at times and hazy in spots, but New Yorker should be commended for bringing this gem to DVD. Shpuntoff's liner notes are very helpful and the film itself is nothing short of brilliant. We strongly recommend! |
