Starring Ricardo Darín and Martina Gusmán, leading Argentinean director Pablo Trapero takes us on a thrilling nocturnal journey into the darker side of Buenos Aires in the gripping and highly acclaimed thriller Carancho (The Vulture). Sosa (Darín) is an ambulance-chasing personal injury attorney with questionable ethics. Lujan (Gusman) is a young, idealistic country doctor new to the city. After Lujan and Sosa's paths repeatedly cross, the two form an unlikely romance that is threatened by Sosa s turbulent past. With traffic accidents the number one cause of death in Argentina, bodies are currency and a black market strives to get rich from the personal tragedies that litter the streets. (Axiom Films)
