Plot

Tire dié is an Argentine documentary directed by Fernando Birri and written Birri and seven other writers. The short film, billed as a "survey film", chronicles the harsh life of lower-class slums in Santa Fe, Argentina. The documentary revolves around a particular set of poor kids who chase a train nicknamed tire dié on a daily base, begging for cents. The title, tire dié is a homonym of the phrase tire diez ("throw ten [cents]"). Kids would chase the slow train every day and run along begging for coins from the passengers who leaned out in curiosity. The film also interviews a number of adults, whose voices are dubbed by professional actors.
