Carlos Portela y Learn · Norma · 2023
The police investigation, journalistic tenacity, labor conciliation or bullying They intersect in a plot whose background theme is very interesting: the criminal treatment suffered by sexual predators in the United States. In Florida, anyone convicted of certain sex crimes is prohibited from living within a thousand feet of a school., daycare, park or playground. A double sentence that causes the grouping of these people in remote communities in impoverished areas. If you commit a sexual crime there you will be marked for life., there is no forgiveness. From this reality, Carlos Portela and Keko have built a thriller in black and white speckled with deep and uncomfortable reflections: we can all do horrible things (evil can be induced), We all have an explanation for our actions and sincere regret, the contrition, does not guarantee that there will be no recidivism. Nothing that leaves us alone. S.M.
