Plot
Elías is a film director and Flako was the most wanted bank robber during the economic crisis in Spain. Flako was in jail while Elías was in the street. Elías decides to send a letter to the jail where Flako is staying and, surprisingly, three weeks later receives his response in which he says he has his permission to pay a visit to the prison. This documentary, directed by León Siminiani, is the chronicle of a friendship between two people with a common goal: to make a robbery movie. A "documentary of creation" that starts from a real case and that brings us a story of friendship, full of love for the cinema and with the longing for reinsertion appearing at the end of the tunnel. The premiere is set to be in 2018.
