"A flood and its effect on a family serves as a social analysis of Argentina's alienated people, the exploited. Birri structures the film as a social survey."
"Este filme heredero de la picaresca española y criolla, presenta la historia de la familia Gaitán, sus aventuras y desventuras. Ubicada en el litoral de Santa Fé, la película reproduce los conflictos y modos de expresión de personajes reales que viven en condiciones de marginalidad. El realismo y la sátira propios del género se encuentran muy bien manejados en esta historia que representa una hábil crítica social. Cabe destacar que una buena parte del elenco está formada por habitantes del sitio donde se desarrolla la trama."@es
"Filmed on location after a flood in Santa Fe, Argentina, this drama follows the fortunes of a peasant family flooded out of their home who take refuge in what they believe to be an abandoned railroad car."
"Es ist die Geschichte einer Landarbeiterfamilie, die ihre armselige Hütte verlassen muss, als der Parana über die Ufer tritt. Sie quartieren sich in der Stadt in einem leeren Eisenbahnwagon ein, nicht ahnend, dass dieser eines Nachts an einen Güterzug angekoppelt wird. Der erste Spielfilm von Fernando Birri und das erste bedeutende Werk des Neuen Lateinamerikanischen Kinos."

""A gently ironic story of the events that befall a peasant family forced to relocate after a flood. Moved from pillar to post, eventually ending up in an abandoned railway car, the family becames a symbol of the strength of Argentina."--Distributor website."
"The Flooded (Los inundados) was Birri's first feature film. It was shot during the flooding devastation of an underdeveloped area in Argentina. A satirical tone is used to depict the hypocrisy of politicians, and a different one to show the main character's resilience and ingenuity for surviving."
