In other news, everything's ready to move the monumental pre-Hispanic...

statue of Tláloc de Coatlinchán, the Aztec God of Rain.

The great sculpture will be placed on Reforma Avenue...

a perfect gateway to the, stunning, new Anthropology Museum...

the melting pot of two exceptional worlds...

our glorious pre-Hispanic past, and prodigious modern Mexico...

being built non stop this unforgettable year of 1964.

Come here!

I said come here.

That's five pesos, mister.

Thanks.

What is this place?

A lake.

Where's the water?

I drank it.

They drained it.

Hey it's getting late.

HOLY DEAD LADY OF THE MIRACLES

Stop playing with that!

Can't you see Don Efrén is really mad?

Some miracle!

We didn't make enough to pay the musicians!

They must have found out about you!

Whores don't tend saints!

Leave with them!

Scram!

What about little Efrén?

I told you not to give the kid my name.

Fucking dry lake!

Let's go!

I want to go down!

Come on, come on!

More, more, more...

Just a minute, lady!

All the way.

That's good.

Damn it, José, where are you? - Fuck, I'm practicing.

IZTAPALAPA ICE

The gas pump is changed but the filter isn't working.

See if you can fix it tomorrow.

Yes, Don Efrén. I'm sorry. See you tomorrow.

José, do you have dirty laundry?

I'll take it to your mother tomorrow.

In two hours, close the valves.

Yes, dad, it won't happen again.

Keep an eye on the cars.

YOLANDA VOMIT

My heart almost stopped, man.

Yolanda vomit.

I'd better leave...

before my old man notices I left and fires me.

You're hurting me.

I think I'm going to tell him to fuck off.

Look, taps like this mean keep on going.

A single hard tap, like this...

means far enough.

You signal with the rag from afar.

It's all in the technique.

There's good money in that gig.

Good money?

I could bring in $800 a day.

Right, now you're going to get rich washing cars.

You're such a retard.

You'll see.

José, you will never stop working for your dad.

And get going, eh? Before my parents catch us.

See you never!

Subject: Slut

Ana: If you're going to be like that, I'll tell you the truth.

You are ugly I only kissed you because I was drunk.

Where I come from, we call girls who kiss anyone sluts.

Did you think I would hook up with someone like you?

Bye

Hey I'm closing up.

Give me a minute.

ROOMS

What time did you get home? I didn't hear you.

Are you alright?

Oh, Felipe, you shouldn't work so late.

Do you want some tea?

A coke? - Mum!

Well, kiss me goodnight, then.

Tlalocan Plumbing

Hey, do you know if the plumber's in?

No, ma'am. What did you need?

Yesterday he installed a sink at my house and today there's no water.

Did you check the water main, and go to the district office?

The water main, right!

The problem is that he's a drunk!

But it's my fault for trusting him.

Just tell him that's not fair.

But make sure you tell him.

I got it real cheap. It's cool, no?

Miss, Miss.

Let me out, don't be mean.

It's the round one.

Thanks. It's just that it's warmer in here.

Any horny babe want to chat in private?

Fucking grungy loser!

Pig!

Faggot!

Can I have a computer?

Thanks.

Network controls

Thanks.

Asshole, what's with the connection?

I'm doing important stuff!

No, wait, I'll fix it in a minute.

Slut

There, it's fixed.

This fucking server is defective, man.

Anáhuac, our true homeland...

fell because of disease...

brought by the false Quetzalcoatl.

Our lands became barren.

Our lakes dried up.

The legacy of great Mexico Tenochtitlan is dying...

and will only rise again when the voice and wisdom...

of our ancestors is reborn.

Hey, that was $20!

Hey, man, what's with you? I got here first.

What's with what, asshole? This street is ours and fuck off.

No way man, that's my car. - Cool it!

This and the next two streets are ours. - What, did you buy them?

You bet I bought them. How does that grab you?

Get out of here, you stupid fuck!

Shut up, you badmouth faggot!

Leave the faggot alone or he'll cry Come on, Palmera.

Are you asleep?

Your aunt called today.

You know your cousin is, a wet back, and she said...

she wanted to learn about computers to send him emails...

I told her I was sure you could teach her...

and I was wondering...

Who's that?

You drank all my booze, Andrecito.

How was your ballet class?

Where are you going?

Come here and drink with me, little faggot!

Can't you see? I'm trying to help you.

Me?

Have some!

Or else?

Or do you only drink with rattles on?

Little faggot dancer.

Drink up!

By the way...

I took the price of what you drank out of your money.

You drunk! Bottoms up!

Come on, you paid for it!

Goal!

Yes, sir, good evening. Is Yolanda around?

Yes, sorry I didn't notice the time.

Yolanda Vomit? What's up?

Why is your cell phone off?

No, I didn't steal it. Wait, don't be mad.

He was going to get mad anyway.

In Coyoacán, on the street I told you about.

Wait, Yolanda Vomit.

How much is it?

There wasn't anything important.

Ten.

I have to close up. - What, man? It's only six thirty.

No, let me say goodbye. - This is an emergency man.

You're going to have to compensate me for this, asshole.

Are you following me?

This is it dude. Give it to him.

Hey little faggot!

Hit it, man!

Come on loser we caught you in fraganti.

Not so cool, eh, little faggot?

Fuck you.

House calls are not by donation anymore, my man.

Thanks, man. I'll give it back at the pyramid.

Here, in case you need a plumber

But take care of it, eh?

What are you going to see?

Why don't you wear the shirt I gave you for Christmas?

You know? You should take her a gift.

Faggot

No, no, compadre. No, compadre Isabel.

You shouldn't drink anymore.

Your plumbing will get messed up.

Enough, stop crying Why are you crying?

I'll give you a little. But just a little.

Compadre, compadre.

You always get like this.

My dog is going to bite you.

Sorry I'm late. Did you buy the tickets?

Let's go.

Hey, that's my old lady!

Why do you let him feel you up? And why is your cellphone turned off?

It was so so, eh?

Shall we climb it?

Come on!

So, what do you do besides Internet?

Not much.

Do you like my mirror?

Hey, you got your fingers on it.

I know you don't like me acting like that. But, that dude was feeling you up.

You didn't say how you felt about teaching your aunt.

You could lend her one of those pamphlets in your drawer.

Were you going through my stuff? - No, I wasn't.

Your room is a pigsty and I was cleaning up.

You're always snooping. I'm sick of it.

I'm going to go away and you'll die all alone!

What happened to the car?

Message from Yolanda Vomit: Stop bugging me!

If I'd know you lived so far away I would have said no, my man.

What's with all these pictures?

They're my father. He was in the Passion every year.

Not any more?

Not for years now

Is that him?

Bring him.

Sir...

your son says you had quite a scare that affected you.

If you tell me what happened, I can help you.

Who are you to bring a charlatan to the house?

Sir, with all due respect...

Get out of my house this instant!

Go on! Go on!

You hadn't told him?

You can't force things.

Only believers are healed.

Do you have my fee?

It's inside, mister.

What we agreed?

Not now. - What? That isn't right, my man.

Bring it to the square..

But bring it, or else...!

Good afternoon, can I speak to Yolanda, please?

It's urgent, I'm her cousin and her grandma's sick.

Hi, it's me.

Otherwise they wouldn't have called you to the phone.

I saw that blender leaving your house last night.

I'm not following you, I was just passing by...

by chance and saw what a whore you are.

How can you be fucking that asshole when...

only a week ago you were with me?

Yes, that's what I think. I think you are a whore!

What money?

I need it to pay the man who came.

Come here, Andresito. Come to me.

Give me that.

Here, Andresito

Yes, dad.

Do you know how many times your dad tried to be Jesus in the Passion?

Often

Fourteen times, Andresito.

And do you know why he was never picked?

Why he never got beyond playing Barrabas?

No, dad.

Because he hadn't understood the message, Andresito.

Do you understand?

Yes.

The message is the most important thing, Andresito.

And do you know what has nothing to do with the message?

No

You bringing some retard here to see me, Andresito.

I'm sorry dad.

You know I don't like retards, right?

Do you know why I don't like retards, Andresito?

No

Because history doesn't go backwards. Do you understand?

Yes.

Do you understand? - Yes

Good, Andresito. That's good.

Incorrect password Try again

Gosh, you forgot your password, man.

I've had it with your fucking bullshit.

Get out!

What are you doing here?

I want to talk to you.

Go away.

I want us to make up.

Give me the key.

Thank you. Now go.

Go away or I'll scream. - Scream. What do I care if your parents find out.

I don't want you looking for me

I don't want you to call. I don't want your messages.

Stop trying to make me feel bad.

Stop trying, because you don't succeed.

Don't come looking for me ever again! Go!

Go.

Can't you see I really love you?

Where's breakfast?

Oh, son, there's no water.

Here come those water assholes!

What's happening, man? - Cool, man. Just hanging.

Look who's coming.

Look, son, your friends.

Give that to me, I'll get the water.

Just look at him, man.

What's happening, man.

Does the whole world have to run out of water for us to meet again?

Looks like it, man.

I've got some pictures, too.

What's this?

Some dude left it and never came back for it.

I thought you still collected them.

Shit, man, I've had enough of those pussies.

Cool. Let's get together again sometime, no?

You're on, man.

It's all sticky. Clean it up.

Another year has gone by, dad.

Here's the cross. It's really cool.

Lights, Andrés. Lights.

Along, long time ago before there were men...

the gods were bored and lonely.

One day they got together to create creatures, to keep them company.

First, they made animals.

But, when they asked them to talk to the the animals only made funny noises.

José, stop fooling around! Come sit by me!

Then the gods decided to create man and after several tries...

one thought of using corn.

And yes, the corn man was perfect.

But he was so perfect that the gods thought he might turn against them...

So the gods got together to see how they could make sure...

man was no danger to them.

And the gods decided to becloud man's eyes.

Like this!

And ever since then, man cannot see things like before.

Or understand things like he did before.

And the gods kept that man because he was no danger to them.

Very good, Abigail. Applaud her children.

Felipe, hand out these fliers among your classmates.

They are for the school fair.

And don't forget, I will be at the marriage booth.

Hey José, will you marry me at the fair?

No way, Yolanda Vomit.

Why do you call me such an ugly name? I'm going to tell the teacher.

I don't give a shit!

Yes, I can't find my barrette.

Stop right there, Monster Indalecio! - Another step and you die!

Alright now, what's going on here, Mr. Efrén? - Nothing, sir I just wanted to see who's this was.

Give that to me! You keep on working and...

leave the children alone!

Come along!

One, two and...

three!

Wait, wait!

What? - I don't want to crumple it.

Let me see.

Abigail, I wanted to tell you I like you a lot, and would you marry me at the school fair?

Do you think she will say yes?

I would just change one thing.

No.

Give me that!

Give it back!

Leave him alone already!

Hey, Felipe, don't be afraid!

After the tragedy in Iztapalapa the news crew went to the hospital...

where they took Ezequiel González... who played Jesus in the Passion.

Ezequiel, what are you thinking right now?

The doctor says two fractured ribs almost punctured his lungs.

It's hard for Ezequiel to speak.

What do you think of Gilberto Barrios, who will take your place...

in the role of Jesus in the Passion?

What? Who is that?

No doubt a hard day after two years of preparation.

Two years? What does he know?

As you know, Iztapalapa elects a person two years in advance...

and Ezequiel will not be able to portray Christ.

Let's see if this one can handle it.

But we are going, right, dad? - Yes. I'll pick up the costumes tomorrow.

Are you finished?

Gilberto Barrios!

Hey, dad, if several Aztecs wanted to marry the same girl...

what would they do?

They will fight to the death with no time limit.

The winner will go on to the finals with unbeatable Andrés.

The loser will be eaten by Monster Indalecio.

Ready!

Attack!

Ha, I cut of a leg

you lost an arm!

That doesn't count, you only grazed me.

That doesn't count, you only grazed me.

It does count!

Wait, time out!

There's no time out in a battle to the death.

But, my sword.

You're dead.

That's not fair, I called time out.

Don't worry, if I win, there'll be a tie breaker against me!

Ladies, gentlemen and children...

I present the fight of the millennium...

Cheater José against Andrés the Aztec.

Ready! Attack!

You die!

Never!

Yes! I won, I won!

You see?

Why did you let him win?

If anyone has any objection to this solemn ceremony...

What happened, honey? Who won?

Stop! I love María Candelaria.

Aren't you hungry?

Did Monster Indalecio eat a lot of children today?

If you're not going to tell her, I will.

No, wait. She's with Yolanda Vomit.

This is for you. - Thanks.

Hey Abi. What do you say? - No way Abi is going to marry you.

No one marries cry babies.

Hey José, will you marry me?

Who is Abigail going to marry?

I think Felipe. He sent her a love letter.

Did you know?

Wait.

Damn cheat! We agreed that I would marry Abigail. You lost!

That's not true, you cheated because I called time out.

Besides, if Andrés hadn't let you win...

I would have had another chance.

José, Abi says she will marry you if you ask her in person.

Will you come with me?

You stay here, cheater!

- The bell! Let's go. - Wait, my backpack!

Miss Cecilia, Abigail said yes to José.

Let them get married.

The bell already rang. - Please...

Your parents are waiting at the door.

You're too late. - Come on!

What's the matter, Felipe?

Come on, let's go. It's time to go home.

Yes, teacher.

My school ID.

Look, there's Abigail. Tell her she has to leave, too.

Abi, your school ID was in the classroom.

Couldn't you bring it to me?

Let's go!

What about Abigail?

Ok, see you later.

See you later, teacher.

They're coming for the stalls tomorrow, eh?

Don't sleep in! No, sir.

Hey, she hasn't looked out, has she? - Look, there she is.

Here comes Yolanda Vomit.

Where's Abi?

Didn't you see her at school?

They must know.

Go ask them.

Have you seen Abigail?

No, she hasn't come out of her house.

Abigail, I can't find her anywhere.

Did you ask the kids?

Where can she be?

We can't find her.

I told you we should wait for her.

I think he kidnapped her. - Who?

Indalecio.

I'm going to tell my dad.

No, wait. Let's go to school and check it out.

Come on. If he has her, he'll answer to me!

You're so damn dumb! I'm going to tell my dad.

Careful, Andrés. Go home. Go on!

Come here, Felipe.

Abi, are you alright? - Yes

I'm sorry.

Was it your fault she got locked in the school?

Did Monster Indalecio abduct you?

No, he didn't even know I was here.

Here's the backpack. - Where's the girl?

His name was Indalecio, wasn't it?

No.

That's just what the kids called him.

His name was Efrén.

Notify Emilia, she's one of the whores on the hill.

No, she got locked in the school all afternoon...

and no one knows why.

The strangest part is that man didn't lay a hand on her.

Yes, he's asleep now.

Efrén, open up, Efrén.

They killed Efrén. Open up.

Open up, open up.

Dad, it's really late

Silence, please.

Know ye that the blood of the just falls like... molten lead on the killer's conscience.

Are you satisfied now? - No!

Having seen a man so cruelly punished.

Sentence him! Crucify him!

Remember that he was most beautiful.

White and blonde and of such pleasant appearance...

that he consoled whomever looked upon him.

Look at that face now.

Have you seen one more disfigured and mutilated?

We have seen worse.

Yes, crucify him! Sentence him to Golgotha!

He calls himself the King of Israel!

I will pass sentence to calm the people!

Look, son, it looks great through the periscope.

Do you want to see? - No, not right now.

I, Pontius Pilate...

judge, sentence and condemn to death...

Jesus of the rabble of Nazarene.

And I dictate that he...

shall die on the cross.

Crucify him!

May heaven bear witness that I am innocent of the death of this just man.

May heaven's fury fall on his executioners.

Look at them!

Come on, come on!

Come on, come on! More more...

I didn't make it.

Who cares?

You're a child.

I'm old now. There are younger women here.

It's a hundred pesos in advance.

Undress and lie down, I'll be right back.

Haven't you taken of your clothes yet, child?

It was my fault.

What was?

Do you hear the song?

You put it on inside out.

It's not your fault I have memories.

Come with me.

Should I ask for something?

No

There's nothing to ask for.

I'm thirsty too.
