Plata quemada (English: Burnt Money) (2000)




Today I watched a movie "Burnt Money." That was great! At the beginning, I didn't like the topic, not because a topic of homosexual, but because of it's advocation of crime and drugs. However, later I seem to understand that there probably an internal causality in this context. The society rejected these two guys and forced them to become criminals. I was amazed by the whole story was based on a real one happened in Buenos Aires in 1965. It was also a novel written by Ricardo Piglia, which won the 1997 Planeta prize. My surprise was such a touching story was a fact, not a fiction.
