Synopsis
This story narrates the experience of a journalist (César Mora) who decides to execute a film project upon arriving in Petecuy, one of the neighborhoods with the highest crime rates in Colombia, to document the process of demobilization and disarmament of young gang members. The process is led by Father Edilson Huérfano (played by himself), who becomes an obstacle for Donal (Cristóbal Errázuriz), a guy who runs the local mafia and is so powerful that his networks infiltrate the major control systems. A film that takes the viewer through different realities of the story, increasingly blurring the line between reality and fiction.
