[IFFR] What is interesting about the film is the description of the main character who faces the financial difficulties of a family in which her husband is absent. The unfinished pool becomes a metaphor for a search for happiness based on a materialistic society. Also a patriarchal society, exposed in the husband's lack of commitment, in the way the workers treat her or the existence of a subtly oppressing structure.
