“Ok, I need to stop, clear my head for a few hours… ¿Clear your head for a few hours? Idiot ¿What are you, in some kind of aspirin commercial? Clear your head for a few hours?!” That’s the way Dissatisfied Argentine Actor Julián Lamar thinks, and from there, he can even reach some higher levels of rage. He’s dissatisfied with his career, his work environment, and his “fellow artists”. Julián Lamar is a whiner –in the best tradition of Ignatius J. Reilly from A Confederacy of Dunces– with a mind that never stops bursting out with insults and describes the world in such a grotesque way –with the poisonous darts of a connoisseur– that it ends up being a grotesque character himself. Julián Lamar wants to get a role in an American western that will be shot in Argentina; he wants to be more than everyone.
