MUBI Release UK Trailer For Heist Tale The Delinquents

MUBI have released the official Trailer for Argentinean Heist comedy, The Delinquents.

The film its made World Premiere in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. It received some good reviews and now Rodrigo Moreno’s film is heading to our shores in March. Many of the reviews liked Moreno’s approach to the heist sub genre and that’s good enough for us!

The Delinquents is set in Buenos Aires, Argentina, following bank worker Morán. He wants to liberate himself and fellow co-worker Roman from the shackles of working life. They want to steal as much money from the bank and retire.

Beguiling and unpredictable, Cannes Un Certain Regard breakout The Delinquents reinvents the heist film as a free-flowing adventure like no other.

Buenos Aires bank employee Morán (Daniel Eliás) dreams up a scheme to liberate himself from corporate monotony: he’ll steal enough money to a modest retirement, then confess and serve prison time while his co-worker holds on to the cash.

Soon under pressure by a company investigator, accomplice Román (Esteban Bigliardi)

heads to a remote rural idyll to hide the funds. There, he encounters a mysterious woman who will transform his life forever.

The latest from Argentinian writer-director Rodrigo Moreno, The Delinquents melds the existential and the playful to explore the nature of freedom itself. Suffused with timeless beauty, this cinematic discovery is at turns surreal, relatable, funny, romantic, surprising, restorative – and above all – a delight.

The film stars Daniel Elías, Esteban Bigliardi, Margarita Molfino, Germán De Silva, Mariana Chaud, Gabriela Saidon, and Cecilia Rainero. The Delinquents will be in UK and Ireland from 22nd March.
