Based on a true story that for 35 years was kept secret...
Directed by Marcelo Piñeyro
Produced by Oscar Kramer, Cuatro Cabezas
A dark, intimate crime drama centered on a doomed romantic relationship between two men whose love becomes entangled with violence and desperation.
Set in Argentina in 1965, the story follows the tumultuous relationship between two men who became lovers and ultimately ruthless bank robbers in a notoriously famous footnote in the annals of crime history. After a large-scale hold-up that turns bloody, the two men must flee. It is not long before the police are surrounding the building they are in and they must confront their demons to survive.
