Nine Queens

Ricardo Darín (The Secret in Their Eyes) and Gaston Pauls lead an all-star cast in clever crime thriller Nine Queens rated an impressive 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary and is now remastered into 4K. Small-time swindlers Juan and Marcos usually work in the streets for a couple of coins. One morning they meet each other and are involved by chance in a half a million-dollar business involving rare stamps – the ‘Nine Queens’. An urgent and unique opportunity, over the following twenty-four hours they go through an experience that will change their lives. As they play along, they reveal the unknown world of thieves and swindlers, in a jungle where everyone contributes their small share of corruption. Like a game, Marcos' lessons to his young and inexperienced colleague begin to resemble the day’s events, and each revelation seems to hide a lie; each promise uncovers a trap. Because when deceit is the name of the game, the truth becomes an obstacle.
