Our take

Let yourself be charmed by the frantic pace of a robber’s life! Based on a novel by author Ricardo Piglia, and revisiting the canon of the gangster genre, Burnt Money is a stylish LGBT psychodrama. The film was inspired by real events, and stars acting duo Leonardo Sbaraglia and Eduardo Noriega.
