فيلم وثائقي★ 6.9

This was a surprisingly good documentary with a lot of good life lessons and what certainly seemed to be a surprise ending. In the end, Justice was served. It serves as a valuable example of where the fantasy of living abroad meets the reality of living with the people who are already living there, as well as a caution to always keep things in perspective. The ruin farm and communal town property were certainly not worth destroying two family's lives. Worth Watching!

Dutch couple, Martin and Margo, give up their urban lives, sell their homes, buy a camper van and travel Europe in search of a place to live a simpler life. They eventually discover their goal in the tiny and remote village of Santoalla in rural Galicia, a place which is in an advanced state of ruination. Only one family remains, the Rodríguez clan. The newcomers buy a ruin and repair it into a liveable home and then begin with wider plans to attract rural tourism. The Rodríguez family strongly oppose to any form of change and a conflict is soon underway. This results in Martin mysteriously disappearing one month after winning a land rights case against the Rodríguez family. This documentary is unusual in that it also operates as a mystery. The disappearance of Martin poses many questions and leads to many stones being uncovered. It really is difficult saying too much about this one as it's really best to approach it with as little knowledge as possible and to watch the story unfold. Two Brooklyn film-makers Andrew Becker and Daniel Mehrer stumbled on the story by chance and decided to make a film on it. They were helped considerably by the fortunate scenario where Martin had previously shot lots of homemade video footage of his neighbours and environs as he became more paranoid about their behaviours towards him. This first hand material adds invaluably to building up a layered account of the story. There are interviews with both groups of people, with the main focus being on Margo, who comes across as a very measured and determined lady. It's a fascinating and sinister true account of cultures clashing badly. It seems the fault lies in both directions, not only the intolerance of the Rodríguez but also, the heavy-handed approach of Martin probably made things worse. Yet, it's obvious where the primary blame lies in this story and it remains a tragic one. Additionally, this is an interesting film simply as a look at a very unusual place. Santoalla is effectively a ruin with people living in it. It exists in a place seemingly shut off from the world, with heavy hardships for those who remain. It's a crumbling place which has a haunting quality to it. A place with stories to tell, this is one of them.

It s a decent documentary. The use of he music track is extremally heavy-handed and jarring but otherwise not bad. I do feel the filmmakers, being urban New Yorkers, came down to much on one side of the conflict. They clearly sympathize more with the Dutch couple who while not rich have more resources and are able to bully their way in several interactions. I suggest considering this crime as an allegory for colonialism. The rural family is essentially indigenous peoples at sustenance level and they are faced with newcomers who begin apparently wanting to not change the land, but eventually begin plans to completely change it with a plan to bringing in tourism and additional settlers. As well as questionable exploitation of resources (timber cutting the local forest in an unsustainable way). The mystery presented by the filmmaker is not so much a mystery -- it is fairly clear what happened in the "disappearance." I think the other aspects are much more compelling and unfortunately inadequately explored.
