P.UERTA 7
Gender: Drama, crime
Direction by Martin Zimmerman. With Dolores Fonzi, Esteban Lamothe, Carlos Belloso. On Netflix
The criminal universe of South American drug trafficking contaminated with the world of football and fans. It is the strange mix of ingredients of Puerta 7 (rendered graphically Puer7a), Argentine TV series available on Netflix.
In the curve of the imaginary team of Ferroviarios, one of the leaders (called “Lomito”) is stabbed behind by a stranger who is then chased, wounded and tortured by the other gang members.
At this point, the club president understands that the time has come to speak e assigns Diana (Dolores Fonzi), the new head of stadium safety, the task of eliminating the problem.
But the intrigues are more complicated, the traffics touch the same managers of the club, while in the poor neighborhood of which the team is an expression, characters move in search of fortune and redemption. One of these is the young Mario, far from the underworld, but attracted to that world in order to help his family financially.
Puer7a is a series that, even without reaching its emotional peaks and aesthetic and writing care, seems to emulate titles like Gomorrah or Narcosin describing the deadly fascination of violence, the degradation and the impossibility of redemption of lives always at the limit.
For those who want to discover new territories of seriality through universally recognized stories and messages.
