In this drama, set in New York City, a boy from a good family takes a bad road when he becomes a heroin addict. As a result, he ends up serving 6-months in jail. Upon his release, he begins working for his father. Just as his life begins to really shape up, the boy meets his old dealer for a drink. The father, assuming the worst, tosses the boy from his home. In desperation, the destitute lad begins selling the drug himself. He cannot handle being around the drug and soon finds himself shooting up again. Because the gang doesn't want addicts selling their drugs, they kick him out. The boy has nowhere to go, no money, and nothing else to lose, so he returns home. His father realizes he must help his son, or watch him die. He helps him. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

As is often the case, evil or at least, a very loose morality is more convincing than the straight and narrow in this interesting drama about corruption and night life in Mexico. Based on a play by Luis Basurto, the panoply of nighttime denizens of the city's bars and clubs makes its way across the screen: women looking out for men to prey upon, a deputy and a policeman who can be bought when the need arises, and a nightclub owner whose sole interests swing between money and women. As this seamier side of the night is revealed in the first half of the film, two women (Ana Luisa Peluffo and Kitty de Hoyos) start heading toward a rethinking of their values. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
