Un genio en apuros

About This Movie

So, 'Un genio en apuros' is this curious little gem from '83 that blends comedy and family themes in a rather charming way. It revolves around a struggling writer, a sculptor with no gallery and a filmmaker who's all talk, no action. There’s this surreal air, like you're caught in a whimsical dream where the absurdity of their aspirations clashes with reality. The pacing feels relaxed, almost like a leisurely stroll through their chaotic lives. The performances have this raw, genuine quality—especially the father-daughter dynamic, which really shines through. You can sense the creative frustrations bubbling beneath the surface, making it resonate with anyone who's ever had a passion sidelined by life's demands. It's quirky, and definitely has its own vibe.

Struggling creatives at the heart of the story · A unique blend of humor and familial love · Quirky performances add to its charm
