Extra Info

An encyclopedia of flaws, from the A of arrogant to the Z of zealously egotistical, that’s Luis Machi. In other words, he’s got all the qualities to make it big in the business world, where the mantra is: crush or be crushed. And hey, Luis happens to like crushing others, like flies. Preferably the helpless little guys, like the illegal workers slaving away at his construction sites or the hijo de puta of the towing service who dares to let him wait for 45 minutes – 45 MINUTES! – after he got stuck by the side of the road with a flat tire on his way to an important meeting. Luckily, the M of macho is also in his encyclopedia, so he decides to take matters in his own hands and go look for the spare tire in the trunk. But there, next to the tire, lies a corpse swayed by flies and attached with the handcuffs he likes to use during the extracurricular activities with his secretary. What kind of pendejo did this to him? Not easy to find out when your enemy list can also fill up an entire encyclopedia…

But little by little it shifts into ever stranger territory, with an ending that will surely get your tongues rolling and heads spinning…
