About This Movie

5 Pal Peso is an intriguing slice-of-life drama that dives deep into the microcosm of Ituzaingó, portraying a world that feels both familiar and hauntingly claustrophobic.

The pacing is a bit slow, but it allows the viewer to really soak in the atmosphere, the dialogues often feeling raw and unfiltered. What stands out is the performances, particularly how the actors embody their characters with an authenticity that’s hard to fake. It’s this gritty realism that makes the film distinctive – a kind of poetic commentary on survival and community in a place that feels both mundane and extraordinary.
