It was an interesting movie. My boyfriend kept asking me which country this movie was from. I kept telling him it was happening in Mexico and this was a Mexican movie. However, my boyfriend was telling me that Nicolas did not have Mexican accent. I did not recognize accents. I looked up where Pablo Derqui was from and he was Spain not Mexico.
I wonder why Nicolas kept doing things he was not supposed to do like driving and scuba diving. At the end, I thought he wanted to end his life because he could not take his hopelessness anymore to live with his epilepsy and terminal treatments his doctor suggested. However, I thought Mexico was a heavy Catholic country, so I wonder the ending meant to be suicide or something else.
It took very long to figure out what was happening at the beginning. The memory scenes were confusing, too long, and too repetitive. The whole structure of the movies could have done better, but the story itself was interesting if the theme was assisted suicide. Was the side story of Isabel's mother's suicide leading to Nicolas suicide? However, I cannot believe such a young person commit suicide just for epilepsy which millions of people are suffered from all over the world.
