La Rina, The Pit
Strasbourg Film Festival

Synopsis: Based on true stories, "La Rina" highlights the polemic of bare knuckle fights in a playboy party where drugs and drinks are served on silver trays. The plot consists of a secret party thrown by ex-students from the American school who bet fortunes in poor wrestlers confronting each other inside an empty swimming pool for a few dollars. Instead of showing typical poverty in Brazil, "La Rina" unveils the opposite by unmasking a luxurious and sick elite in Sao Paulo.
