25 Watts (2001)

It's a Saturday morning in Montevideo, and Leche (Daniel Hendler), Javi (Jorge Temponi) and Seba (Alfonso Tort) are still up from the night before, drinking beer and avoiding responsibility. The film follows these lazy compadres for 24 hours as they talk nonsense, encounter weird characters from the neighbourhood, and drift in a state of chronic boredom. The directors of this low-budget black and white flick admit being influenced by 'Slacker', 'Clerks' and 'Stranger Than Paradise', and audiences have been won over by the similarly sly, goofy charms of '25 Watts'.
