Inspired by Luis Buuel's Los Olvidados, Mexican writer-director Leopoldo Laborde's haunting, engrossing film shows Mexico City at its darkest. Fifteen-year-old Frank (Francisco Rey) sells his body to men to survive, but still can't afford his own drug habit. His best friend (and dealer) David (David Valdez) helps him out with 'loans' and offers advice on how to bed a woman, something the young gay hustler knows nothing about. Frank's obsession with the pretty blonde Angelica (Mariana Gaja) blossoms, but when an older man from Frank's past (Roberto Cobo, Los Olividados, A Place Without Limits) turns up again, the young boy becomes even more sexually confused.
