The Boss: Anatomy of a Crime

“Until when is it possible to exploit a man?”

Hermógenes Saldivar (Joaquín Furriel) is a farmhand from northern Argentina who moves to Buenos Aires with his young wife, hoping for a better life. He lands a job as an apprentice butcher under Don Latuada (Luis Ziembrowski), and the work proves to be a trap. Sebastián Schindel built nearly every scene from a real case and the documented habits of the meat business, so the question of what Hermógenes stands to lose is a very real one.
