A story whose dramatic weight falls on the shoulders of a sublime Glenn Close, who lends her saddest smile, her frown and her lost look to a woman who begins to claim her own voice. [Full review in Spanish]

Watch Close's face in these early scenes; imagine what she's feeling because you will imagine something much different by the end.
