White Elephant

Drama in which two Catholic priests strive to defend the rights of the forgotten poor in Buenos Aires, while confronting brutal gangs and a skeptical church hierarchy.

What should have been South America's largest hospital sits half-finished in the shanty towns of Buenos Aires, home to thousands. Amidst rising tensions between residents, striking labourers and warring drug cartels, two Catholic priests strive to defend the rights of the forgotten poor while confronting brutal gangs and a church hierarchy skeptical of their unconventional methods.

In Spanish with English subtitles.
