Spanish premiere

The night extends its labyrinth of darkness. There, each person is the living dead. A group of characters wander through a city that we cannot see, playing themselves: drug addicts, prostitutes, cheats and other shady inhabitants. The credits are full of alias rather than names and surnames. Theatre filmed in a brief but intense fall to hell, where delirium and sordidness live and dance to the rhythm of mambo.
