Wild Tales (Relatos salvajes) is a 2014 Argentine anthology film, starring Ricardo DarÃn, Nancy Dupláa, Érika Rivas and other actors. It comprises six short stories revolving around violence and vengeance.Pasternak: As two passengers boarding a plane start to make small talk, the girl discovers her conversation partner is the music critic that destroyed the career of her former boyfriend, by the name of Pasternak. Another passenger was his teacher... and gradually, they discover that they all knew that guy... who happens to be their cabin chief. As they discover that Pasternak has locked himself inside the plane's cockpit, they realize too late why he has arranged to have them all on board at the same time...Las Ratas (The Rats): After a loan shark named Cuenca has ruined her family (driving her father to suicide), a girl has moved away from her village and works as a waitress in a road diner... and the monster is now here, asking for a meal. Even worse, she discovers he's running for mayor. The girl refuses the cook's offer to put rat poison in his food, but the cook poisons it anyway. The waitress is now facing a moral dilemma, especially when Cuenca's son shows up as well, and starts eating from his dish...El Más Fuerte (The Strongest): Diego travels by road in his brand-new Audi when he reaches Mario's old beat-up car who pretends to block his way. Diego overtakes Mario and insults him as he goes past, mocking him for being jealous. Later on, Diego gets a flat tire and proceeds to change his wheel. Unfortunately, Mario catches up with him, forcing Diego to take shelter in his car. Mario pulls up before him and proceeds to trash Diego's car, smashing the windshield and doing his business on the bonnet, jeering all the way and calling Diego a coward. Enraged, Diego proceeds to show him that he means business...Bombita (Little Bomb): As Simón Fisher, a demolition engineer, is buying a cake for his daughter's birthday, his improperly parked car is towed away. After an attempt to dispute his parking ticket at the pound, fruitlessly arguing of the faded markings in the street, he grudgingly pays the towing fee to retrieve his car and shows up late to the birthday party, to his wife's annoyance. When he goes to pay the ticket, he tries again to dispute it, loses his temper, attacks the employee's booth and is taken away by security while the other people on the line cheer him on. His stunt makes it on the news, causing him to get fired, his wife demands a divorce and obtains full custody of their daughter. When his car is towed away once again, he finally decides to take revenge against those who ruined his life...La Propuesta (The Proposal): Santiago, the son of a rich family drives back home after running over a pregnant woman and fleeing the scene. The accident makes the news after the woman dies, sparking a wave of outrage among the population. Mauricio, the father, calls his lawyer and together they ask his gardener to take the blame in exchange for half a million dollars. The police and the prosecutor arrives, followed by a crowd of angry protesters who start picketing before the family's house, demanding justice. The prosecutor sees through the scheme, so he has to be bribed as well. Then the lawyer ask for his share, the gardener demands an apartment on top of his and the prosecutor asks for an additional payment for bribes, to the annoyance of Mauricio who gets fed up with their increasing demands, especially as Santiago wishes to do the right thing and confess...Hasta Que La Muerte Nos Separe (Until Death Do Us Part): In the middle of a wedding party, Romina, the bride, discovers that her husband, Ariel, has an affair with a coworker who happens to be one of the guests. She confronts him during a dance and runs away in despair. After being comforted by a kitchen worker, she swears revenge on her cheating husband and proceeds to "liven up" the party...Not to be confused with the Bulgarian anthology of short stories by the same name. | |

| Wild Tales / int_4b39c18 | comment |
Taking the Heat: To ensure the waitress won't get blamed for the attempt to poison Cuenca (as well as both to save her friend from being assaulted by him and because she obviously wished to do the bastard in), the cook stabs him to death with a kitchen knife and gets arrested by the police, giving the waitress a knowing wink as she's taken away. The gardener in the fifth story gets paid $500,000 to do it for his employer's son. This backfires on him when, as he's taken away by the police, the husband of the pregnant victim decides to take justice into his own hands... | |

Disproportionate Retribution: The various things people did to Pasternak that apparently warranted him killing them in a mass plane crash include giving his music a bad review, firing him for being a bad employee, turning him down when asked to go out with him, and raising the rates at therapy. Diego insulted Mario on the road. Mario, as any reasonable human would, later proceeds to try to destroy the former's car while he's vulnerable, including pissing and shitting on the windshield. | |

| Wild Tales / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: The usurer from the second story drove the waitress's father to suicide through his loans. In the last story, after learning of her husband's infidelity, Romina ends up on the hotel's roof. The Top-Down View of the hotel and the street below leaves little doubt on her intent before the kitchen worker comes to her. Subverted when, shortly after Ariel's mother's attempt to throttle Romina, Ariel snaps out of his breakdown and walks a little away from the scene. Then a loud bang makes everyone jump... which turns out to be Ariel popping out a champagne's bottle which he proceeds to drink from. | |

Villain with Good Publicity: Blowing up the DMV that forces drivers to pay fines before they're allowed to dispute tickets? Sure, he was jailed for terrorist charges, but for everybody else "Bombita" is a urban hero. Social networks are abuzz with praises of his act and calls for his release and a guy even asks him to blow up the AFIP (the Argentinian equivalent of the IRS). He even reconciles with his proud wife and daughter and celebrates his birthday surrounded by cheering inmates. | |

Children Are Innocent: What eventually motivates the waitress to try and take away Cuenca's poisoned food is the arrival of his son, Alexis. The cook has no such qualms and reckons that "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". The scrapped ending of Las ratas jumped 15 years into the future to show us the fate of the cook, where she was playing cards with her cellmate when the warden calls to eat. Through a barred window, you see an ad campaign which shows us that the son of the usurer is running for Governor, just as she had predicted it. | |

Revenge Before Reason: Diego, after the first fight of the third story, finally manages to drive away after pushing Mario off the road. However, when Mario runs after him, shouting about how he got his license plate number and promises to make him pay, he makes a U-turn and tries to run him over. Too bad he forgot that he didn't have the time to fasten his replacement wheel properly... | |

Oh, Crap!: Several. From the plane's passengers of the first story, when the stewardess reveals that Pasternak is their security officer and has locked himself inside the cockpit. The elderly couple as well when they realize the plane is coming crashing straight down onto them. The waitress of the second story, though already bothered by the poisoning attempt in progress, has this when Cuenca's son shows up and starts digging in his fries. In the third story, Diego when, in the middle of changing his wheel, Mario shows up. In the last story, Lourdes when she notices Romina is the one who's calling her with Ariel's cell phone and is looking straight at her. | |
