Summary:

"Cagalera y Moloteco son dos adolescentes de San Gregorio Atlapulco que buscan desesperadamente alejarse de las circunstancias opresivas en las que viven. Cuando se enteran de la oportunidad de comprar una plaza en el sindicato de electricistas, que podría transformar sus vidas, se adentran en el oscuro mundo criminal de la Ciudad de México, en un intento por comprar su libertad."--Contenedor.

"In this audacious crime drama from the celebrated Mexican actor-turned-director (Déficit), lifelong friends Cagalera and Moloteco turn to violence and lawlessness to buy their way out of their hard-scrabble Mexico City neighborhood. Hoping to scrape together enough cash to join a union that holds the promise of steady work, the amateur criminals graduate from petty theft to hostage-taking. But their escapades land the teens in desperate circumstances, both darkly humorous and fraught with danger."--Chicago Film Festival.
