Shot predominantly on location in Buenos Aires for the low cost of $187,000, Pizza Birra Faso is impeccably detailed, a present-tense debut toggling the modes of the TV movie (which it was originally designed to be) and something far less staid – a gnashing, bitter and relentless work, an earnest and unsentimental tragedy with many hilarious detours along the way.
