SYNOPSIS

Since her father died, Maribel and her mother have been in charge of his clandestine gambling business. One day, she confirms an old suspicion: his father may have had an unacknowledged son called Facundo. The Fepeto’s memories are now littered with the obvious signs of this double life.  Through the editing of hundreds of hours of family film footage and the staging of a fiction on the border between genre and documentary, this film reconstructs the foundation, heyday and fall of a family.
