Strangers in the Park. (L to R) Luis Brandoni as León, Eduardo Blanco as Antonio in Strangers in the Park. Cr. Marcos Ludevid / Netflix © 2026.
Parque Lezama, a placid bucolic park in central Buenos Aires. An aged man, Cardozo (Eduardo Blanco), sits on a bench just down from the park’s gazebo, pretending to read a newspaper, though his hands are shaking and he has lost his peripheral vision. Not much younger, Leon (Luis Brandoni), a former communist activist with a beret and walking stick, shuffles towards him and sits at his side.
“Well, what we were talking about?” he asks. “We’re weren’t talking. I don’t even know your name,” retorts Cardozo. “
