Dino, Salvador and Paco have been longing to spend a Night with top actress Wanda Manera. The opportunity comes to them when they find a bag full with cocaine during failed Paco's bachelor party. The plan of selling the drug to pay for Wanda will lead them through Buenos Aires' underground and a series of odd characters. 3 friends with very different and stereotyped personalities, a classic Torino car, the underground world, sex. Great movie with lots of funny situations. Totally different from regular "commited" Argentinian movie. Althoug almost none of the actors are know for general audience, the performances are extraordinary. A good description of the Argentine way.

The real value of the film are details. All them are there for a reason, they are the framework for the entire movie since they describe the Argentina reality in the mentioned years 1976, 1989, 2003. There are so many (e.g. people that would never come back, as seen with the exiles/ a female model suspected of being involved with military chiefs/ inflation that makes the prices soar while the protagonists are talking/ the incredible well played character of "King of the Night" by Claudio Rissi/ Simon Movicom and the first cellular phones that were extremely bulky etc), that the spectator should be extremely attentive to not lose anyone. A well informed person will enjoy them as they appear. It may be needed a second or third view to discover them all.
