DOMINGO´S WISH

Domingo is a pensioner who lives in a nursing home in the city of Viedma where he spends his time recalling the adventures of the time he lived in Buenos Aires. Alzheimer’s disease brings to life once and again his old days with his friends in the horse races: he writes down statistics, reads old horseracing magazines and places his turf bets at a local agency.

Marcelo, his grandson, is the only relative who accompanies him, listening to his stories again and again, as if it was the first time. Marcelo lives with Sofia, but the couple is not getting along.
Sofía works in a judicial office and wants to progress to the standards of society and Marcelo works at a ministerial department and also wants progress, but he is convinced that his rock and roll band will be successfull one day and he will make a living out of it. In the meantime, the band plays pop covers at wedding parties and bars.

Marcelo saves as much money as he can to improve the quality of the musical equipment of the band, and when he is close to get the money for this, his grandfather Domingo confesses that he would pay all the money in the world to go to Buenos Aires again to see the Great Prize Carlos Pellegrini.

Marcelo will be choose what do with his invests. Make the dream of his grandfather true. Improve the quality of the musical equipment of the band or give money to Sofía to buy a new place to live.
