The short film , billed as a survey film , chronicles the harsh life of lower class slums in Santa Fe, Argentina . Production history Fernando Birri, born in Santa Fe in 1925, left at the age of 25 for Rome to study film making at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia , from 1950 to 1953. In 1956 he returned to Santa Fe, to form the Film Institute at the Universidad Nacional del Litoral university, and started filming footage for his project, Tire di , over a three year period. The documentary revolves around a particular set of poor kids who chase a train nicknamed tire di on a daily base, begging for cents. The title, tire di is a homonym of the phrase tire diez throw ten cents . Kids would chase the slow train every day and run along begging for coins from the passengers who leaned out in curiosity. The film also interviews a number of adults, whose voices are dubbed by professional actors. The film was released two years after its completion in 1958, which gave time for Birri to film and screen what became his first film, La primera fundaci n de Buenos Aires in 1959. A year later, Tire di was premiered. The film earned Birri critical acclaim and paved his way for further projects of similar nature, like Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires 1960 and more famously Los inundados 1961 , which won the Venice Film Festival award for Best First Film.

File tireimpactdamage.jpg thumb Automobile tire after impact A blowout is a rapid loss of inflation pressure of a pneumatics pneumatic tire leading to an explosion. The primary cause for this is encountering an object that cuts or tears the structural components of the tire to the point where the structure is incapable of containing the pressurized air, with the escaping pressurized air adding to further tear through the tire structure. It is also fairly common for tread separations to be termed blowouts even those where the inflation pressure is not compromised. Because of this confusion, the term is rarely used by experts in tire failures, where the term impact damage is more frequently used.
