Winsor Pilates DVD Review: Family Law (2006) Review

DERECHO DE FAMILIA (FAMILY LAW), the third and final installment in Daniel Burman's trilogy, finds the lead character Ariel Perleman (Daniel Hendler) teaching law at the university, while giving us a play-by-play of the events that lead up to his being there.What's more, we get a sense of the great divide that exists between him and his father, who he only refers to as "Perleman Senior" (Arturo Goetz), who practices law out of a firm where several people feel his son should work as well.It's never really clear where the breakdown in their relationship took place.What is evident is that Ariel is reluctant to form any interpersonal relationships, other than the one he builds with his wife, Sandra (Julieta Diaz), who stands out in the crowd of his students--many of them young and female.Sandra teaches Pilates, and Ariel takes her classes to get closer to her, after she drops out of his law class.They marry and have a beautiful son, Gaston.Ariel fails to form a bond with him and Sandra must juggle all activities that involve their child, while Ariel remains off to the side.This is truly a character study in broken relationships and how they effect and alter those involved.

Daniel Burman succeeds in creating a beautiful, humorous and touching film.It engages and touches your heart, all the while making you think about the consequences that evolve out of estrangement and emotional abandonment.What's more, sometimes we have the power to turn this pain around if we're sincere.I don't want to ruin the evolution of the plot development here.You're just going to have watch it and see for yourself.This is just beautiful.
