Here lies an unclassifiable film, an object that (fortunately) manages to slip away from the canons of supposed good taste and consensus, and finds its own space as a novel of sentimental education set in Tumbayá, Jujuy, an idyllic place whose everyday life altered by the construction of a big hotel. Isabel is a young local girl, a young princess with mauve eyelashes who that starts a relationship with one of the workers who arrived to town. Somehow, she incarnates the ambiguity of the relation between Tumbayá itself and the newcomers, in a game of mutual need and utilization, an uncertain area in which the will to break away with a boring isolation and the irreparable loss of innocence clash against each other. Luminous, sensual, and featuring a beauty as untamable as the lead character herself, The Girl in Yellow Heels is the work of a filmmaker we should keep a close eye on. FG
