overview
What is Rompiente about?
It’s the first day of shooting a low-budget independent film. Juan, the director, tries to shoot a sex scene with Malena and Julián, two inexperienced young actors. But he also secretly keeps the camera running in between takes, in an attempt to capture brief moments of intimacy. Hours go by and the scene doesn’t seem to come out right. Weariness, repetition, and communication problems pile up as Juan tries to convince the actress to show more of her body. Violence will emerge as the shooting crumbles. It blends drama elements. The film reflects a distinct Argentina style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Juan Schnitman. With a runtime of 48 minutes, it offers a concise viewing experience.
