A gripping thriller based on true events and the best-selling novel by Reynaldo Sietecase, A Singular Crime features an exceptional cast headed by Nicolás Francella (High Seas), Matías Mayer, Malena Sánchez (Super Crazy SPA19) and Darío Grandinetti (Rojo, SPA19, Wild Tales, Hierro).
In 1980, during the military dictatorship in Argentina, a wealthy businessman mysteriously disappears in the city of Rosario. The investigation is led by two young clerks of an investigative court, a few weeks before one of them plans to emigrate to Spain.
Caught in a race against time, the two jurists will do everything possible to try to solve the case while facing the interference of an untrustworthy police force, subservient to the repressive government. Faced with various dangers, the two will have to put their lives at risk in their quest for justice.
In the vein of The Usual Suspects meets Zodiac, Lucas Combina’s compelling true-crime story A Singular Crime follows the search for the truth in the face of police corruption.
"The script offers moments of levity, romance, and twists, that in addition to Mayer's character, point to an intelligent case resolution."
