Plot
Three kids go on a spree that takes an unusual turn in this exuberant comedy-drama. Ignacio (Ignacio Rogers) is a smart but restless guy in his late teens who will soon graduate from high school if he can bring himself to go to class. Ignacio is dating aspiring actress Ines (Ines Efron), and when she's cast in a play out of town, Ignacio escorts her to the bus station before heading out to a café to meet up with his friends Nahuel (Nahuel Viale) and Julian (Julian Tello). Ignacio, Nahuel and Julian decide to skip off school and hang out in downtown Buenos Aires. The three are in a mood to have fun and begin playing pranks on the passers-by, such as lying on the sidewalk pretending to be unconscious, but after a while Ignacio's paranoia begins to get the better of him and he imagines that truant officers are following them. Wanting the spies to show their hand, Ignacio, Nahuel and Julian's jokes become more and more extreme as they imagine someone will eventually feel compelled to intervene. Como Estar Muerto (aka How To Be Dead) was the first feature film from writer and director Manuel Ferrari. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
