Inspired by true events, this is a nocturnal thriller that follows the 2015 kidnapping of Chichita—mother of writer Hernán Casciari—by Daniel Olesnik. Olesnik seeks to settle a blood debt: to avenge a prank played by Hernán and his friend Chiri back in 1987, which drove his own mother to suicide. It is an inescapable, suffocating, and deadly spiral of vengeance that unfolds over the course of a single night.

An incestuous love affair. Meme and Jeremias are the younger children in a typical bourgeois family. Their mother Lucia is the dominant force in the household, but her fixation on upholding the niceties of upper middle class life has prevented her from seeing what is going on under her roof. When the siblings’ older brother and his fiancee arrive home for their wedding, it seems inevitable that the concealment will be impossible to sustain. But equally it becomes apparent that if Lucia were to find out about the affair, there would be catastrophic consequences.

Sonia and Arturo live in a house that appears safe but is too large and silent. One night, three armed men violently break into the couple's property. Arturo manages to escape and capture the youngest and most inexperienced of the thieves, deciding to kidnap him and discipline him in the basement of the house. Gradually, the anger dissipates, and strange familial ties emerge that Arturo and Sonia believed were long gone. "Salvajes" is a violent portrayal of a divided society, in an unequal social fabric where the boundaries between victim and perpetrator become blurred.

Barbara is a teenager overwhelmed by her parents' relationship, by the contradictions between her desires and the society she lives in, by love, heartbreak, and misunderstandings.

Amidst death, helplessness, and incomprehension, her 80-year-old grandmother Olga's story appears at the perfect moment, with the precise wisdom and understanding of a family history of Italian immigrants that repeats itself through generations; with the perfect magic and timing, and a bridge between life and death: the perfect beauty to drain so much pain.

Over a long weekend, a group of friends gathers together, a diverse representation of the last twenty-five years of the Italian left. Some of them haven't seen each other in a long time; the occasion is the release from prison of a former friend and comrade, accused of killing a judge in the 1980s. Roberto Ferro is on parole and wants to know which of his former comrades reported him. Among the friends, some have achieved privileged positions; others, like Nanni and Malena, have adapted to a more modest life and have retained, at least in part, the ideals of their youth. Malena, an Argentine exile who experienced torture at the hands of the military, had a love affair with Roberto and, before that, a strong bond with a disappeared comrade. Roberto's return reignites personal and political conflicts within the group.
