The Mudboy

Synopsis

Inspired by true events. Buenos Aires, 1912. A series of brutal murders are sweeping the city. 

A 10 year old child (Juan Ciancio) hides a secret: sometimes his mind leads him to a dark place in memory where he witnesses the murders. Upon discovery of this secret, many will believe he is the murderer .

Estela, his mother (Maribel Verdu), with the support of a forensic policeman, Dr. Soria (Chete Lera), tries to find a rational explanation for her son´s visions, to undermine Commissioner Petrie´s (Daniel Freire) skepticism.
