In Spanish with English subtitles

Living with his mother and working as a farmhand in his hometown, fourteen-year-old Lalo (Eduardo Banda) sees buying a smartphone for his high-school crush the only surefire way into her heart. When his mother is forced to use savings in order to pay for medical bills, Lalo decides to approach the local huachicoleros for help, who quickly enlist his aid in their business of illegally siphoning gas in order to take advantage of the country's shortage and re-sell on the black market. As Lalo naively becomes more involved with the huachicoleros work, an uneasy air of violence begins to overtake the world around him, while investigators narrow their search for those responsible. Depicted in beautifully sun-drenched imagery and grounded in Banda's remarkable first on-screen performance, director Edgar Nito crafts an intensely resonant and engrossing story of the tightening grip facing both his protagonist and his country with this feature debut.

Lalo (Eduardo Banda), un joven de catorce años que vive con su madre y trabaja como peón en su lugar de origen, sabe que comprarle un teléfono inteligente a su amor de secundaria es la única forma segura de llegarle a su corazón. Cuando su madre se ve obligada a usar sus ahorros para pagar las facturas médicas, Lalo decide pedir ayuda a los huachicoleros locales, que rápidamente requieren de sus servicios en su negocio de desviar gasolina ilegalmente para venderla en el mercado negro, aprovechando su escasez en el país. A medida que Lalo, víctima de su propia ingenuidad, se involucra más con el trabajo de los huachicoleros, un aire inquieto de violencia comienza a invadir el mundo que lo rodea. Mientras tanto, los investigadores afinan su búsqueda de los responsables. Retratado con imágenes bellamente iluminadas y con el notable debut cinematográfico de Banda, el director Edgar Nito debuta con una historia intensamente resonante y fascinante sobre la apremiante situación que enfrentan su protagonista y su país.
