Carrot

Two Uruguayan journalists embark on a journey of secrets, simulations, furtive encounters and paranoia when a mysterious informant contact them with the intention to reveal evidence of crimes by the military dictatorship that have never been investigated. The delivery is postponed repeatedly, patience runs out and anxiety grows, but the possibility of obtaining the information is stronger than any suspicion.

Directed by Enrique Buchichio, Carrot leans on a strong ensemble — César Troncoso, Martín Rodríguez, Abel Tripaldi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2014.
