Wild Horses (Spanish: Caballos salvajes) is a 1995 Argentine drama road movie directed by Marcelo Piñeyro and written by Piñeyro and Aída Bortnik. It stars Héctor Alterio, Leonardo Sbaraglia, Cecilia Dopazo and Fernán Mirás. Renowned actors Cipe Lincovsky and Federico Luppi both appear in cameo appearances. The film chronicles the five days of two fugitives who are on the run after inadvertently robbing a corrupt corporation and being targeted by the media.
