Storyline

- TriviaThis film and "Un mundo maravilloso (2006)" are the films in the series that received less censorship during their projection in Mexico. This could be because the other two, "La ley de Herodes (1999)" and "La dictadura perfecta (2014)," were released when the most powerful and controversial political party of the country, PRI, known in Mexico for its intolerance to criticism, was ruling the country.

Featured review
This is a picture of Mexico's reality: drugs, violence, corruption and zero opportunities to people. Estrada is a no-fear director that shows what are happening in my country, he told about corruption in police corps, army, politicians inclusive with president Calderon y former's presidents, the church (catholic) has a important role in the film. Damian Alcazar is a warranty, Joaquin Cosio, Gomez Cruz, Maria Rojo, Salvador Sanchez all of them great actors that make a brilliant movie. The story is about Benny Garcia (Alcazar) a deported Mexican who found his town worst than ever, without job and no money he was introduced to mob group by his best friend Cochiloco (Cosio). Love and violence, loyalty and human feelings is mixed in this picture. Congratulations to Estrada for his courage to say the things like are in a country like Mexico.
