Cows and friendship
30 May 2021
Roberto, who owns a modest hardware store, helps a Chinese man who will change his life forever.

One of the strengths of Chinese Take-Away is that it shows, right from the start, what it intends to be: a kind of century-old Chinese fable transported to the present, which pulls on goodness, humidity and affection.

The script is really well writen. The humor is very well thought out, with no easy jokes or cliché moments.

Seeing for 90 minutes an Argentine and a Chinese men communicating without saying a single word is really fun, in such a tender and friendly and divine way.

For a comedy, I would even say that it is too intense and dramatic in certain scenes.

The actors are all fabulous, it's a film made with very few resources, but with a lot of dedication, and above all attention to details that makr the story a whole.
