The true story of a minor-league goalkeeper picked up by the Argentinean security services in 1977, when Argentina was suffering the tyranny of military rule.

A realistic horror story that serves as a testament to the thousands of Argentina’s disappeared. The film is based on the autobiography of a goal-keeper called Claudio Tamburrini who was abducted by Argentine para-militaries in 1977, tortured and held captive for over 4 months.

By showing us only the experience of the prisoners, Buenos Aires 1977 maintains a feeling of claustrophobia, fear and tension. What's really impressive is that Caetano doesn't show any graphic torture. He relies on the way the actors look and act to convey what they have been through.
