Guillermo Francella

Argentina in the early eighties. Within a typical family home in the traditional neighborhood of San Isidro, a sinister clan makes its living off kidnapping and murder.

After failing to predict a destructive hailstorm, a famous meteorologist flees to his hometown and soon finds himself on a journey of self-discovery.

At once a love story, a revenge epic, and a mystery of political intrigue, this excellent thriller from Argentina won 2009’s Best Foreign Film Academy Award® (in a crowded year!) and has become one of Latin American cinema’s most popular exports.
