PREVIEW: Everybody Has a Plan

Everybody Has a Plan is a 2012 Argentinian crime thriller starring Viggo Mortensen and Soledad VIllamil. Directed by Ana Piterbarg from a screenplay by Anna Cohan and Piterbarg, the film is a joint production of Argentinian and Spanish companies.

Agustín is a man who is desperate to abandon a life living in Buenos Aires which for him has become a frustrating existence.  After the death of his twin brother, Pedro.  Agustín decides to start a new life, adopting the identity of Pedro and returning to the mysterious region of the Delta, where they lived as boys. Shortly after his return, Agustín finds himself unwillingly involved in the dangerous criminal world that was his brother's life.

Set 20 miles north of Buenos Airas, Piterbarg's film is a slow, sombre noir thirller which dual identity themes similar to that of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and The Comedy of Errors, make it a familiar story.
 

*At heart it's a crime flick, but Piterbarg has woven in a woozy psychological undercurrent with a powerful pull that places it a cut above* Little White Lies

*Hardly anyone will see it, but those who do ought to be impressed.* New York Daily News
