Dante Spinetta

Luis Alberto Spinetta, perhaps the most poetic musician of Argentine rock, bleeds each one of his songs in the heat of Democratic Argentina in the mid-eighties.

Concert recorded on december 4th, 2009 at the José Amalfitani Stadium in Buenos Aires

Tren (20), his girlfriend Drama (18) and their friends Trucas (19), Mico (16) and Weed (17), are youths who live on the outskirts of Mexico City. Through graffiti art, dancing, music and song, they have a good time imitating their idols in music, dance and television, dreaming of someday being great figures in show business. They gather at the F.B.I., which holds dance and graffiti contests, and which is also frequented by el Loco (28) and his gang of small time drug dealers in the barrio. At the same time, Tren’s brother Nuk (43) returns home after 23 years. Nuk finds the environment changed, with all the evils of society, only now they are stronger than when he left.

A fascinating journey through the life and work of many Latin American music idols, by the curious gaze of young chroniclers, with access to exclusive footage.
