The Insufferable Gaucho, centers around Manuel Pereda, an Argentinian lawyer, judge, and widowed father who, falling the collapse of the Argentine economy, moves from Buenos Aires to the pampas. There, he runs a small rancho called Alamo Negro and immerses himself in life there, even going so far as to become a rabbit hunter. One day, upon his return to Buenos Aires, Pereda stabs a cocaine-snorting writer in the groin with a knife.
