Pablo Trapero presents us with another film in which he is not afraid of authoritarianism, of crudely showing Argentine problems such as those who are missing, tortured and murdered.
In the case of this film, Elefante Blanco talks about the slums in Buenos Aires, he tells us about the marginalized life between misery, filth and vices.
The use and OVERUSE of the sequence shot in this film is perfect, there are even moments when I get dizzy because it seems like an endless labyrinth. The photography combines masterful shots in choral compositions where the neighbors, the police and the priests move according to a kind of self-absorbed neighborhood choreography.
