Rosarigasinos (Gangs from Rosario) is a 2001 Argentine film, written and directed by Rodrigo Grande and starring Federico Luppi and Ulises Dumont. The film is also known as Presos del Olvido in Spain.[1]
The film was produced by Adolfo Aristarain, José Martínez, and José A. Martínez Suárez; the associate producer was Alfredo Suaya and was partly funded by the INCAA.
The picture tells of two prison friends who cope with life outside jail after being paroled.
Tito (Federico Luppi) and Castor (Ulises Dumont) are two robbers whose failed scheme landed them in the Rosario prison for 30 years. Before being jailed, however, the duo stashed much cash near the Paraná River. They plan on getting back to it as soon as they're released.
Thirty years later, however, their insecurities and the pressures of being re-adjusted to society, threaten to ruin their perfect crime.
