Adrenaline is a trip to a detention center for underaged in conflict with the law in Saltillo. The stories are told in two planes: a fictional one (written by the boys themselves) and a testimonial one. The narratives are contrasted showing the playful and cruel universes in the lives of the adolescents. Adrenaline seeks a humanized look at the origins of violence in Mexico without shunning individual responsibilities.
