Synopsis

Set in the outskirts of Buenos Aires, the film zooms in on the Felpeto family running a clandestine gambling business for decades until police raids threaten their dynasty and a secret of their late father comes to light. Rosselli blends found footage with a mis-en-scene that oscillates between documentary and fiction to depict the heyday and downfall of a family.
