A history of Argentine horror cinema, from its beginnings in 1934 to present day. It is a path of defeat, dead-end streets and triumphs, where the protagonists will lead us through the lesser known hallways of local horror.
City of Rosario. After three decades in prison together in the same cell, Tito and Castor are released. Outside the youth's friends await, as well as mines, tango, nights of drunkenness and a suitcase full of money hidden in the Parana River. They will try to seize the time and live every second trying to retrieve each of those thirty years behind bars. And when things become complicated they will cover each other as they always did.
The film is a fictional chronicle of a resonant police case that occurred in the city of Catamarca: the crime of the young María Soledad Morales, which had great public repercussion due to the links with the power of the culprits.
A dynamic young man falls in love with his own boss, a married businessman, with two children.
Argentina's turbulent political history is an uncredited but clearly present protagonist in this rather slow-paced story about Ramon (Oscar Martinez) and his search for his brother Pedro in the capital city of Buenos Aires. Pedro has disappeared at a time of upheaval, after a military junta takes over Argentina in 1976, killing thousands of leftists and dissidents. Unlike many others, Ramon's father has political ties that matter, but that may not change Pedro's fate, which could be death -- or like some who have been tortured, worse than death. This film was nominated for a Golden Bear award at the 1985 Berlin Film Festival.
In Buenos Aires, Argentina, Isidoro Vidal and his friends, who are in the transition between maturity and old age, watch in stupefaction and helplessness as gangs of extremely violent young men roam the streets murdering elderly people with absolute impunity.
