The Coolidge Corner Theatre

As a bodyguard for a high profile politician, Ruben is reduced to a mere shadow of a man: every action in his life is regulated by a series of mundane routines, and everywhere his boss goes he must follow, watching but never speaking. Resigned to his invisibility, his life is a series of days without meaning, punctuated only by visits to a prostitute, in this compelling chronicle by firsttime director Rodrigo Moreno of a man without any true identity or connection to the world in which he lives.

(2006) dir. Rodrigo Moreno, Argentina, in Spanish w/ English subtitles, DVD,1h33m
