Synopsis

Argentina, 2001. A group of small town folk gather their savings for a dream project and entrust them to the local bank. A day later, the government freezes all bank accounts. An unscrupulous lawyer who teams up with the bank manager takes advantage of the situation and swindles them out of everything they’ve got. Months later, a rumor spreads indicating where their savings might be hidden. The band joins forces to get back what’s theirs, creating a strong bond in the way. Now they just have to wait for the perfect night to carry out the complex rescue of all their money.
