Mexico / 2014 / 106 min.
Director: Alonso Ruizpalacios

Ever since the National University strike broke out, Sombra and Santos have been living in angst-ridden limbo. Education-less, motionless, purposeless, and unsure of what the strike will bring, they begin to look for strange ways to kill time. But their idiosyncratic routine is interrupted by the unexpected arrival of Tomas, Sombra's kid brother. Unable to fit in amongst these older slackers, Tomas discovers that unsung Mexican folk-rock hero Epigmenio Cruz has been hospitalized somewhere in the city. Tomas convinces Sombra and Santos they must track him down in order to pay their final respects on his deathbed. But what they thought would be a simple trip to find their childhood idol, soon becomes a voyage of self-discovery across Mexico City's invisible frontiers.

Sombra y Santos viven en un extraño limbo desde que estalló la huelga de la UNAM. Sin saber qué lado tomar, sin escuela, sin propósito, los amigos inventan extrañas maneras de pasar el tiempo. Pero su rutina es interrumpida con la llegada inesperada de Tomás, el hermano menor de Sombra. Tomás descubre que su héroe, Epigmenio Cruz, un mítico cantante de los años sesenta, agoniza en algún hospital recóndito y convence a Sombra y a Santos de ir a rendirle homenaje. La búsqueda de Epigmenio se convierte en un viaje de tres días atravesando las fronteras invisibles de la Ciudad de México, que los llevará a descubrir que no pueden huir de sí mismos, ni de la huelga que creyeron dejar atrás.
