In 1965, the Indonesian government was overthrown by the army. The country was invaded by paramilitaries who murdered more than a million people in less than a year. Anwar is one of the founders of the death squad. Unlike other killers, Anwar is revered, considered a leader and an example to follow. He and his companions talk about the murders committed in the style of the Hollywood movies they love.

Mexico will no longer exist!

¡Aoquic iez in Mexico! ¡Ya México no existirá más!

A frenetic view runs over a convulsed Mexico City, a colossal metropolis sustained by the myth of "mestizaje" and other colonial forms of violence. Past and present weave a flurry of images; fragmented memories of this land. Ancient deities are incarnated, while dreams overlap among intimacy, complicity and the tumult. This is an erratic film that invites us to reimagine the complex relationship we have with the constructed “mexicanidad.”
