Discover What Critics Are Saying About El Angel:
"A nonchalant, sexy Goodfellas"
Picture
"A stylish period piece boasting solid performances, colorful visuals, and a
terrific vintage soundtrack"

Picture
"In the manner of Scorsese or Sorrentino, Ortega creates baroque, propulsive storytelling set to
a brassy soundtrack."

Picture
"Ortega has clearly seen his share of Tarantino movies...

He employs a familiar arch, artful approach to this material,
with sleek gliding shots and kicky retro tunes."

Buenos Aires, 1971. Carlitos is a seventeen-year-old with movie star swagger, blond curls and a baby face.

When he meets the handsome Ramon at his new school, Carlitos is immediately drawn to him and instigates a fight. A relationship soon develops with the two embarking on a crime spree fueled by jealousy and unspoken desires. As their relationship grows more combustible, their crimes become more violent and deadly, until Carlitos is finally apprehended at the age of 20.

Because of his cherubic appearance, the press dubs Carlitos “The Angel of Death.” Showered with attention, he becomes an overnight celebrity. To this day, he remains imprisoned in Argentina —  the longest-serving inmate in the country’s history.​
