The Buenos Aires Affair tells the tale of the final days of Leo Druscovich. Between 1930 and 1969, a coup and a popular uprising in Cordoba provide the background for a story about the enigma of a series of disappearances, false leads and sexual obsessions. The figure of the detective gives way to that of the psychoanalyst and the quest to solve a crime will become a way of examining the national condition.
Different outrages and violence practiced upon individual bodies and society as a whole, the absence of bodies, the official lies and family secrets form a plot of seduction, psychoanalysis and fascism.
In The Buenos Aires Affair the threat is constant and the romantic and political thriller combine.
