Homo Sapiens? presents a collection of sixteen satirical stories, all performed by Guillermo Francella. Each character embodies a different kind of tension: elegant opportunism, bourgeois double standards, football fanaticism, consumerist ambition, humour in the face of chaos, exaggerated political correctness, the cult of age and status, the mafia of friendship, or the art of playing the fool. There is no redemption and no moral lesson — only humour and discomfort, but also tenderness and an irony both sharp and unavoidable. Far from any attempt to define what Argentina is, the film immerses itself in an imaginary world that feels familiar to us all — even if we might prefer to deny it.
