Luisa and Gabino visit her parents in a mining town in northern Mexico. Paco, Luisa's boyfriend, provokes the father's only interest in them by playing the role of a narco. To cope with family tensions, Gabino imagines a parallel reality of detectives and organized crime. A slyly comic version of how violence has infiltrated Mexico's popular imagination.
Presented as part of the ATELIER training workshop.
