This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Extraordinary Stories (Spanish: Historias extraordinarias) is a 2008 Argentine film written and directed by Mariano Llinás. The main cast includes Walter Jakob, Agustín Mendilaharzu, and Llinás himself. The movie has a runtime of 245 minutes and is structured into three acts, each containing 18 chapters, presenting three separate and parallel narratives. These stories follow the lives of three regular men designated as "X," "H," and "Z."
In the first story, "X" witnesses a murder and seeks refuge in a hotel. The second tale centers on "H," who is assigned a perplexing mission. The third narrative revolves around "Z," who becomes deeply engrossed in investigating the life of a recently deceased man he replaces in a new job.
The film was independently produced with financial support from the I.Sat channel, resulting in a budget of $30,000. Distinguishing itself from other Argentine productions, Extraordinary Stories employed a small film crew and often featured actors with minimal or no prior cinema experience. Their roles were flexible and interchangeable.
The movie premiered at BAFICI, where it received two awards, and also gained recognition at the Premios Sur, Cóndor de Plata, and the Miami International Film Festival. It garnered widespread acclaim from both Argentine and international film critics for its unique approach and artistic merit.
