About This Movie
La Raulito is an intriguing glimpse into a tough world, following the life of Mary Esher Duffau, who navigates the gritty streets of Buenos Aires while adopting the identity of a boy. The film creates a raw and immersive atmosphere that captures the harsh realities of life on the margins. It’s not just a story about survival; it digs into themes of identity, resilience, and the longing for belonging. The pacing can feel a bit erratic, mirroring Raulito's chaotic journey through reformatories and prisons. The performances are gritty and authentic, which really grounds the narrative, making it distinctive in the landscape of ’70s Argentine cinema.
La Raulito has a fascinating but elusive presence in collector circles, with scarce home video releases, particularly in its original format. The film’s underground status and connection to Boca Juniors add layers to its appeal, especially for collectors interested in Argentine cinema. It’s one of those films that not every collector has, which makes finding a good print quite the treasure hunt.
