Trailer

Why watch this film?

With a dark sense of humor, the film explores the tense relationship between an ambitious company and the Mexican drug cartel. Featuring action, dynamic scenes and a type of humor that often veers into slapstick territory, the feature film explores multiple stories within this bigger context - with clear inspirations from the likes of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. Unfortunately, the story gets lost, failing to explore each of its protagonists, staying far from its inspirations - which earned it some harsh reviews from the specialized press.
