Our Review

The Strong Ones is a beautifully understated Chilean romance between two men whose connection develops against the windswept landscapes of the country’s southern coast. Samuel González and Antonio Altamirano have natural chemistry, and Omar Zúñiga gives the film tenderness without sacrificing realism.
