CGiii Comment
This is a sweet-natured little film - with major narrative flaws.
The blame falls squarely on Agresti - it's as if he wasn't paying attention to what he was filming.
Duping the audience is one thing...but, treating them like morons is unforgivable.
It is a shame...because, all the actors give top notch performances - only to be let down by an inconsistent script and amateur direction.
No trailer...

In Curuguazu, located in the Argentinian countryside, seventeen year-old Daniel Montero has been raised by his grandmother for three years since the death of his parents in a car accident. Daniel has a boring life, working in a poultry processing plant and meeting his friends in the square to make small talk. He saves some money from his salary and buys an old television, where he watches late night porn shows of Sabrina Love. Daniel wins a contest to spend one night with Sabina Love in Buenos Aires. However, he does not have the 50 pesos to pay for the bus ticket and hitchhikes along 500 kilometers with truck drivers to the city. He is robbed on the road but arrives in Buenos Aires on Saturday morning, but the television postpones his meeting with Sabrina Love to Monday. Without any money, he visits his older brother Enrique who left his hometown many years ago to study agronomy and does not know that his parents are deceased. Daniel discovers many truths during his brief stay.
