The Mole Agent is one of those films that stands out for its simplicity, which is attractive as well as effective. With a clear message and a reflective ending that only aims to make visible the loneliness faced by the elderly in our society and how, even so, they overflow with vitality and joy. Highlighting Sergio and the main group of residents of the retirement home undoubtedly bring the film to life.

Este é um documentário muito bem feito, e muito bonito visualmente. Apesar de ter seus momentos cômicos, no geral, é triste, bastante carregado emocionalmente, e passa uma mensagem muito relevante de maneira tocante.

Esta documental nos recuerda lo difícil que es la vejez, es un retrato tierno pero doloroso sobre lo que puede llegar a ser el final de nuestras vidas. Más de una lagrima hizo que se me escapara. Merecida su nominación en los Oscar.
