I HATE movies that portray suffering. This one is the exception

Rating: 9/10 (5 March 2009)

Despite the fact that this movie is a terrible load of suffering and brutality, it manages to put through a message of hope: Even in the face of the worst injustices and literally murderous of circumstances, there is a last refuge inside every person. A place that nobody can violate... not even by killing you.
The original Spanish version is worth very much... do not see a dubbed version if only to get the emotional acting that comes through the voices.
This actually constitutes (in my humble opinion) the only argument in favor of escaping reality that has merit.
The special effects are great.
Do not take your children!!!
