Synopsis

Tucumán, Argentina. Miguel makes a living snatching people’s belongings from his motorbike. But when he steals the purse of Elena, an old woman, he ends up hurting her badly. In an attempt to make things right, he conceals his true identity and starts to take care of the unsuspecting injured Elena.

Our take

For his solo directorial debut, Agustín Toscano returns to his hometown of Tucumán for a tale of conscience regained, starring frequent collaborators Sergio Prina and Liliana Juárez. Set against a period of both economic and political turmoil, the desire for redemption comes with a high price.
