Tony Manero

Gritty crime drama set in late 1970s Chile during the early years of the harsh dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet. Alfredo Castro stars as Raul Peralta, a middle-aged Santiago low-life who becomes obsessed with impersonating Tony Manero, the character played by John Travolta in the hit film Saturday Night Fever. When the national television channel announces a contest for the best impersonation of Tony Manero's dance moves, Raul's obsession reaches new heights and he is driven to commit a series of increasingly brutal crimes to ensure his success.
