Reception

[edit]

Jonathan Holland of The Hollywood Reporter considered the film to be "an enjoyably grungy item about moral turpitude in the Argentine backwoods".[12]

María Fernanda Mugica of La Nación gave the film a 'very good' rating, describing it as "nihilistic film that plunges the viewer for almost two hours into hopeless darkness".[13]

Pablo O. Scholz of Clarín also gave The Lost Brother a 'very good' score, pointing out that it is a film with which "the best Caetano is back".[2]
