Medellin,
Colombia. "There are two types of people in this city: the poor who
scratch a living on street level, and those who have turned to the underworld
to survive." This is a look inside a brutal world. A world
in which children are recruited as assassins. A world in which this
is an accepted way of life. We see Alberto who believes that life
will be so much better now that he has a job as a hit man. He'll
have money and respect and can help his family. But what he doesn't
know is how disposable children are in this society. |
