Burnt Money (Plata Quemada) is based on a true story that is legend in Argentinean crime history. Dark and brooding, yet stylish and sensual, the film is the mesmerizing, unnerving story of a group of violent bank robbers, two of whom are gay lovers known in criminal circles as the twins. After a big robbery ends in a bloody shootout, the trio hides in Uruguay, where shimmering tensions escalate into a fiery climax worthy of a John Woo thriller. (official distributor synopsis)

In 1960s Argentina, Bonny and Clyde gradually discover that their dream money is a direct line to hell. The axis of crime has always been the same, but this story is spiced by a bond between Romeo and Romeo that is stronger than death. At this point, Leonardo Sbaraglia already had his sights set on Diary of a Nymphomaniac. ()
