In Northern Mexico, mere minutes after she saw her teenager Laura (Denisse Azpilcueta) off on a date, single mother Celio (Arcelia Ramirez) was buttonholed by a young hood (Daniel Garcia)... who matter-of-factly told her that she had to deliver an exorbitant ransom if she wanted to see her daughter again. The response of an indifferent and overtaxed police system drives her to find her own justice in this remarkable offering. 140 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Spanish; Subtitles: English In Spanish with English subtitles.
