In this comedy, the question is not whether the hero of the film will come to grief over his ill-considered gallantry, but when. Sofia (Cecelia Toussaint) is the unfaithful girlfriend of Bruno (Rafael Sanchez Navarro), a thoroughly besotted novelist. She has been on a jaunt to Veracruz with an elderly lover. When the old businessman dies while they are making love, Sofia calls Bruno to help her make the whole situation disappear. His somewhat improbable solution is to have the dead man's body embalmed and placed in the trunk of his car. After that, every one of his increasingly outrageous adventures carries the risk of the body being discovered. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

Set to the pulsating soundtrack of Mexican rock music, director Paul Leduc's gritty look at life in the ghettoes of Mexico City during the 1980s ventures into the places rarely seen by tourists and outsiders. In traveling seldom explored side streets, visiting the local bars, and swaying to the music of the best-known rock acts that the city has to offer, Leduc exposes the deplorable state of affairs in the capitol that left the repressed citizens longing for freedom from the suffocating violence and poverty that surrounded them on all sides. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
