Puzzle (Spanish: Rompecabezas) is a 2010 Argentine drama film directed by Natalia Smirnoff. It was nominated for the Golden Bear at the 60th Berlin International Film Festival.
A middle-aged housewife, Maria del Carmen (Maria Onetto), suddenly finds she has a gift for assembling puzzles. Unbeknownst to her husband (Gabriel Goity) and two college-age sons, she begins practicing for a tournament with a man (Arturo Goetz) she met through an ad in a puzzle shop. The thrill "of a woman discovering her special gift and rejoicing in it" is just one of the surprises in store for Maria, as she starts to look differently at the pieces of her life, and to try new things.
Critical reception to the film was mostly positive, according to reviews cited at IMDb, with the notable exception of V.A. Musetto in the New York Post who said, "If the plot of the Argentine soaper Puzzle seems familiar, that's because it's nearly identical to the story in the French movie Queen To Play." Comparing this film to Lucrecia Martel's The Headless Woman, in which Maria Onetto starred in 2008, Stephen Holden of The New York Times said, "Although Puzzle is a much smaller, less ambitious film without the ominous political subtext of Ms. Martel's masterwork, its story...has implications about sexual inequality in Argentina's middle class." Holden also notes that Smirnoff served as Martel's casting director on the 2008 film. The A.V. Club says, "its conclusion is pleasing and not at all pat, a portrait of a woman who's learned she deserves to keep some things for herself."

There's a puzzle in my head
Spend a lifetime finding pieces
It will take forever to put together
The square and the round
Something that proves I'm not
Hangin' around, hangin' around
You wanna leave, you wanna leave
But there's someone inside you just don't trust
You wanna leave, you make believe
That your life is not a wreck and it will never rust, no
Don't want your money
Your milk and honey
You'll never love me
I won't bring you down
Yeah, there's a desert in my head tonight
I'll lie here like a dead man all night
I still have a face, it looks like mine
If only, if only, if only, if only
If only, I could reach my mind
You wanna leave, you wanna leave
But someone inside you just don't trust
You wanna leave, you make believe
That your life is not a wreck and you'll never rust, no
Don't want your money
Your milk and honey
You'll never love me
I won't bring you down
Don't want your money
Your milk and honey
You'll never love me
I won't bring you down, down, down, down
You'll never love me
