First of all I want to give credit to Diego Luna, he's no doubt one of the finest actor in Mexico. Before I watched this I just saw the 2015 tv series Casanova that he played.It surprised me how differently he can be on sex scenes, perhaps seeing some different act from him helps you to understand this film more.

In Casanova you can see how much his character loves women and treasures them like a delicate creation simply from his body movement. But in this one, you feel no pleasure while his character's doing those things to women, pure instinctive, almost insensitive. He's doing these to fill his own void.

Void is one thing being talked about through out this film. We're all capable of hate, and love sometimes. But what if we can feel nothing? This craving of being able to feel was driving people to do things. To have sex,Manuel, to kill, like Gregorio. This buffalo that only comes to stare at you in the night is the loneliness we all have to face. This is something this film was trying to deliver I guess. Not so successfully though.

This sense of unsuccessful about this film is because it's based on a very poor screen-script. Some of the dialogues are so bad that almost painful to watch. It weakened the plots a lot, though you can see how much effort the director, actors and even the music editor put trying to empower these scenes with emotions.

The other thing this film failed to deliver is the sickness. The earwig that Gregorio mentioned at the beginning, suggested he's suffering from schizophrenia --Gregorio is not the only one. So does Manuel. He saw it as well, maybe this is just a start. In the end when he asked Tania do you love me, it feels like a compulsive invitation, to ask her to join this madness of seeking feelings.

In this world, everyone is sick, no one is satisfied.
