Chekhov in contemporary Argentina. Mecha and Gregorio are at their rundown country place near La Ciénaga with their teen children. It's hot. The adults drink constantly; Mecha cuts herself, engendering a trip to the hospital and a visit from her son José. A cousin, Tali, brings her children. The kids are on their own, sunbathing by the filthy pool, dancing in town, running in the hills with shotguns, driving cars without licenses. One of the teen girls loves Isabel, a family servant constantly accused of stealing. Mother and son, son and sisters, teen and Isabel are in each other's beds and bathrooms with a creepy intimacy. With no adults paying attention, who's at risk?

Reviews
…Character is destiny, it has been said. As true as that may be, Lucrecia Martel's remarkable debut film, ''La Ciénaga,'' shows how geography and climate also determine human fate. For whether or not we recognize it, we all live in nature. And in ''La Ciénaga'' nature looms over the characters like a malevolent giant exhaling fetid vapors.
Stephen Holden, NY Times
…Martel's densely layered soundtrack is even more impressive than her distinctive, confident visuals: the scrape of a pool chair against the concrete is enough to set your teeth on edge. It's not that the film lacks compassion, but that Martel's outlook is singularly bleak.
T.Ch., TimeOut London
Argentinian Lucrecia Martel has clearly decided to offer audiences the radnomness of reality, instead of tweaking or distorting it like so many other film makers… Cheerless, messy, and slack.
Michael Thomson, BBC
…Martel is intoxicated by her country's stringent provincialism: Boys and girls with scars and scratches on their faces live in constant fear of mythical African rats and the neighbor's unseen dogs. Mecha dreams of Bolivia but fails to rise from her bed—for her, it's easier to just stand still. A life is shattered so abruptly you might gasp—not because of the horror of the crash but because no one was there to listen. A deceptively simple tale, La Ciénaga is an evocation of willingly allowing oneself (and one's country) to go to seed.
Ed Gonzalez, Slant Magazine
