Synopsis

Our take

Based on the true story of Argentina’s Puccio crime dynasty, this confidently-directed thriller from Pablo Trapero (White Elephant) combines scenes of breathtaking violence with a rollicking rock’n’roll soundtrack. Slick, stylish, Scorsese-esque, winner of the Venice Film Festival’s Silver Lion.
