fuck it, midcentury argentinean ant-man

Santiago Quiroga comes out of the Posadas jail in Misiones in the spring of 1968, determined to reconnect with his eleven year old daughter Martita, whom he hasnt seen for the last four years since he was apprehended for a complex bank heist where he took the blame in place of his best friends and partners in crime: David "El Armenio" Diradourian, an eccentric plumber and electrician and a wiz on several sorts of handyman jobs; Simón Gavensky, engineer, owner of a hardware store and friend of Elena's (Santi's wife) family, kind of neurotic but extremely loyal; and Luis Aranda, an ex-bank employee and ex-convict too, Santi's best friend who picks him up from jail and tries to help him find job.

meanwhile, Horacio de Silva, a prestigious scientist with a bad temper and a worse reputation after the last military coup that, due to his ties with peronist researchers and scientists, destroyed a good amount of his research, is now working alongside his estranged daughter, Esperanza de Silva, and her fiancé, Lautaro Jauretche, a powerful and rich businessman who helped the family regain their prestige and academic respect, and who now is anxious to marry Esperanza, who he doesnt love, to get access to the personal files of the de Silva family -and evidence of the urban myth of the incredible Hombre Hormiga, a rumor in the scientific community of a masked vigilante finding and taking revenge on the increasingly abusive power of the authorities that run the country

the stories of Esperanza and Horacio de Silva, and Santiago Quiroga become one when, giving in to help his friends with one last heist, Santi founds a mysterious "B-movie sci fi costume" in the de Silva house that, when put on, somehow reduces him to the size on an ant. he learns that the myths of the superhero and his companion, la Avispa, were true; and that now Horacio needs someone new to take the mantle and defend his research from the external forces that want to use it for "military matters".

and Santi may just be the right person for the job
