Damian Alcazar stars as Juan Vargas, a junkyard operator who is recruited as a temporary mayor following the demise of the latest corrupt town leader. At first, Vargas is the ideal politician: he's honest, desperate and not terribly ambitious - or so it seems. But eventually, Vargas gives in to overwhelming temptation, bribery, and even violence in this brilliant, tongue-in-cheek story about government treachery. (official distributor synopsis)
