An 11-year-old street boy, Obdulio, who sells newspapers for a living but cannot read or write, finds a magical "Maestro" in the night watchman of the newspaper's office. Obdulio's charismatic mentor not only introduces him to the world of literacy but also teaches him the real meaning of life through the lyrics of the "Murgas" during the magical nights of the irreverent and provocative Uruguayan Carnival.

This is the story of a bag of money and the people who come into contact with it. (imdb)
