A poor neighborhood in Mexico City. Carpenter Pepe el Toro lives peacefully with his daughter Chachita while woos the pretty Celia, but tragedy knocks his door when he is falsely accused of having perpetrated a felony.
This film feels like a heavy, unflinching gaze into the abyss of poverty and desperation. It's a stark, raw portrayal of lives crushed by circumstance and injustice, leaving a lingering sense of unease and profound sadness.
