Synopsis
Based on a true story of a huge payroll robbery in Bolivia in the late 80s. A truck carrying a consignment of cash (the wages of thousands of miners) is attacked and robbed by bandits. When the amount of the haul turns out to be beyond their wildest dreams, the crew of thieves agree to bury the cash until things cool off. Meantime, a confused investigation is launched amid serious cries of ineptitude, corruption and protection by the police themselves. Adolfo, an intelligent and honest detective, makes his own parallel investigation into the situation. His intuition tells him that there's someone else behind the heist--someone very powerful and more redoubtable than the robbers themselves.
