This is a Mexican movie that’s… well… Mexican. It’s the film equivalent of a velvet painting of Mary framed with chistmas lights. It’s one of those things that should have you turning your head, but you can’t because it’s so true, so real. The movie is about a Mexican cop who graduates from the academy & gets posted to Mexican siberia – some dirt infested town in the middle of nowhere. He gradually loses his idealism & becomes just another nameless face… It’s a sick thing, but how can you not watch it?
