CARANCHO
OPENING FILM
In Argentina over 8,000 people die in traffic accidents every year. Behind each of these tragedies is a flourishing industry founded on insurance payouts and legal loopholes. Sosa (Ricardo Darín) is a lawyer who haunts hospital waiting rooms and police stations in search of potential clients. When he falls in love with ambulance medic Luján, he tries to leave this dark business, but the shady law firm that he works for won’t let him off that easily.
Argentina 2010 Dir.: Pablo Trapero 107 min With: Ricardo Darín
