This is Ariel's world: the small, slightly seedy shopping center in downtown Buenos Aires, where the Italian shopkeepers scream all day, the Koreans sell feng-shui and old Osvaldo sells nothing. Where Ariel's mother runs a lingerie shop and his brother deals in import-export. It's a comfortable little world, in spite of an undercurrent of malaise and uncertainty. Many young people are searching for their immigrant roots to obtain a coveted foreign passport, the key to a world full of promise. Ariel, however, wants more than a passport from Poland, where his grandparents fled to escape the Holocaust. He wants to understand. Why his father left his family shortly after his birth to fight a war in Israel. Why he never returned. And why this seems to leave his mother and brother indifferent. But the truth changes. And when Ariel's father returns, he brings with him new truths, a new story and, ultimately, a long-overdue embrace... one that had been lost for so long.

Un joven judío trabaja junto a su madre en una mercería de una galería de Once y está iniciando los trámites para conseguir la ciudadanía polaca e irse a vivir a Europa. Esta película cuenta su historia, la de los diversos personajes que habitan la galería, y la de su padre, que hace varios años se fue a luchar en la Guerra de Yom Kippur, y que ahora vuelve a reencontrarse con su hijo.




Do you think your town is the only cosmopolitan place on earth? Do you have issues with your mom? Has your dad been absent for some time? Is your brother a loser? Argentinean filmmaker Daniel Burman writes and directs the ensemble film El Abrazo Partido (Lost Embrace), a follow-up to his 2000 feature Waiting for the Messiah. Daniel Hendler plays Ariel, a young man who lives in a Jewish working-class section of Buenos Aires. Since his father went missing in the war, his mother Sonia (Adriana Aizenberg) and brother Joseph (Sergio Boris) work in the shopping and business district. With no interest in school or work, Ariel hangs out and sleeps with Rita (Silvina Bosco). He finally gets the idea to move to Poland, so asks his grandmother (Rosita Londner), ex-girlfriend Estela (Melina Petriella), and Rabbi Benderson (Norman Erlich) for help. Meanwhile, a host of characters make up Ariel's multicultural neighborhood.




This portrait of a man in crisis is funnily descriptive, sharply accurate and surprisingly moving. Excellent camera, screenplay, direction and acting. The leads are outstanding and the secondaries superb.
Lost Embrace won two Silver Bear awards at the Berlin Film Festival in 2004.




Daniel Hendler interpreta a Ariel, un adolescente tardío, que vive en la Argentina de hoy, en un ambiente de confusión y cierta decadencia, donde todo a su alrededor se va transformando en otra cosa, en una desesperada búsqueda por la supervivencia. En esta transformación, él y otros a su alrededor retoman sus orígenes. Pero no como una reafirmación de la identidad, sino con objetivos burocráticos, como conseguir un pasaporte de alguna nacionalidad ancestral, que haga de salvoconducto al "paraíso europeo".
Hay un hecho en su vida que determina su punto de vista sobre todo: un padre héroe que abandona a su familia por un ideal. Esto, para él, es un dilema moral insoportable, un pensamiento obsesivo que lo ciega, hasta que de un momento para otro la verdad se transforma, como todo a su alrededor, en verdades nuevas, en otra historia, que ahora también será la suya.



El abrazo partido refleja el camino de la construcción de una identidad, en base a pequeñas anécdotas, trágicas algunas y muchas cómicas, a verdades, y también, porqué no, a mentiras.
