A gang of teenagers roams the slums of Buenos Aires looking for money – which means trouble. After they rob a paraplegic street vendor, Sandra, the only girl in the gang, has had enough. Pregnant with El Cordobes´ child, she tells him to straighten up, or she will leave him. He decides to pull one more heist, but his plans go terribly wrong.
Shot in a gritty, documentary – like style, the film captures the chaos of life on the streets of Buenos Aires. Directors Adrian Caetano (A RED BEAR, BOLIVIA) and Bruno Stagnaro offer a brutally real film that shocked the world with its truth and garnered an armful of awards.
Cast: Hector Anglada, Jorge Sesan, Pamela Jordan, Adrian Yopse, Daniel di Biase.
