Sergio is a Chilean spy. Well, sort of. He has booked the role of one after a casting session organized by a private investigator who needs a credible mole to infiltrate a retirement home when the concerned daughter of a resident there suspects her mother is being abused. However, Sergio is 83, not 007, and not exactly an easy trainee when it comes to spying techniques and new technology. But he is a keen student, looking for ways to distract himself after recently losing his wife. What could be a better distraction than some undercover spy action? While gathering intelligence, Sergio grows close to several residents and realizes that the menacing truth beneath the surface is not what anyone had suspected. This stylish combination of observational documentary and spy movie, with sleek camerawork and wonderfully watchable characters, is a heartwarming and unique meditation on compassion and loneliness.
