synopsis
This Argentinean sports drama sees Alberto "Pajaro" Romero (Mauricio Dayub), a young man who hails from the outer limits of society, being given a shot at glory after being picked to try for the Guinness Book of Word Records' longest continuous cycling. Alberto needs to pedal 130 hours over the course of six days, with 20-minute rests every four hours. When he's not pedaling, Alberto pals around with his best buddy Lopecito (Vando Villamil), a meatpacker, and lusts after La Mora (Alejandra Puy), a comely circus acrobat.
