En 1956, tras el asalto a una joyería por parte de dos ladrones argentinos, se pone en marcha un operativo policial que acaba con la detención y encarcelamiento de los delincuentes. Sin embargo, el botín no aparece, y su búsqueda pone de manifiesto una compleja trama de complicidades.
Eduard Cortés' film, a Spanish-Argentinian co-production, follows an unusual real-life jewel robbery in mid-50s Spain.
A knockabout heist caper with serious - even tragic - undertones, Hold-Up! (¡Atraco!) is a breezily likeable crime-comedy inspired by a bizarre footnote of 20th century political history. The Spanish/Argentinian co-production revolves around a complicated plan concoted to prevent the wife of Spain's dictator General Franco getting her hands on jewels once owned by Argentina's fabled first lady Eva Perón - 'Evita' for short. And for the most part journeyman director Eduard Cortés juggles its romantic, comic and dramatic elements with slick, audience-friendly aplomb.
