Connection
Enrique Pinti is a Actor Argentin born on 7 october 1939
Enrique Pinti (born October 7, 1939 in Buenos Aires) is an Argentine actor and comedian.
As a humorist, he performs stand-up shows with long monologues on Argentine politics and history, speaking at an extremely fast pace and resorting to a mix of common swearwords and elaborate insults to qualify notorious examples of immorality or corruption. The monologues are interrupted by interspersed musical segments. Though his stance is not impartial or unbiased, Pinti displays historical knowledge beyond the common traditional themes, so these shows are arguably an alternative source of learning about Argentina's past and present troubles. A number of his productions, such as Salsa Criolla in the early 1990s and Candombe Nacional, more recently, were among the most successful in the Argentine theatre.
Pinti has also starred in a number of Argentine films, in satirical as well as tragic roles. Some of the most notable have been in Carlos Galettini's Juan que reía (1976), Alejandro Doria's Esperando la carroza (1985), Eduardo Mignogna's Flop (1990), Alberto Lecchi's Perdido por perdido (1993), Carlos Saura's Tango (1998), and in María Victoria Menis' Arregui, la noticia del día (2001).

In Buenos Aires, Mario Suárez, a middle-aged theatre director, is left holed up in his apartment, licking his wounds when his girlfriend (and principal dancer) Laura leaves him. Seeking distraction, he throws himself into his next project, a musical about the tango. One evening, while meeting with his backers, he is introduced to a beautiful young woman, Elena, the girlfriend of his chief investor Angelo, a shady businessman with underworld connections. Angelo asks Mario to audition Elena. He does so and is immediately captivated by her. Eventually, he takes her out of the chorus and gives her a leading role. An affair develops between them, but the possessive Angelo has her followed, and threatens her with dire consequences if she leaves him, mirroring Mario's own feelings and actions towards Laura before Elena entered his life.

La vie de pauvres gosses d'un bidonville de Buenos Aires. De parents chômeurs, le vol est leur seul moyen de survie. Mais, ils agissent dans un univers hostile et dangereux : deux d'entre eux vendent une statue volée au gardien d'un cimetière qui les escroque. Ce dernier, moyennant argent, autorise, d'autre part, un couple d'adolescents amoureux à pénétrer, de nuit, dans les jardins du cimetière. Là, le garçon est battu et la fille violée par des employés. Le petit garçon Bolita, livré à lui-même, est dévoré par un cochon. Ses frères, ne le voyant pas revenir, s'en prennent au fils du directeur des pompes funèbres, censé être à l'origine de sa disparition, et finissent par le tuer.
