Scope and content

Oscar drives a taxi 12 hours a day to earn a living. While he works, he is constantly bombarded by the advertising that fills the streets of Buenos Aires. In the trunk of his Peugeot 504, he carries his tools -bottles of glue, paint and cut-outs from magazines. Whenever the taxi is vacant he stops the car, borrows a ladder and starts to transform his chosen billboard using painting and collage techniques. Throughout the film the steadily worsening state of the country's economic situation is reflected in Oscar's personal and creative life, as he is submerged in the national chaos his work becomes more strongly critical.
