Loss Adjustment

Ajuste de pérdidas

Pedro, an insurance adjuster who travels through Mexico investigating catastrophes, must deal with corrupt "vultures." To escape his job, he agrees to act in a play. The play takes on an emotional dimension greater than that of his profession, creating a parallel between his personal defeat and human tragedy, leading to an identity crisis. Two contradictory worlds collide, leaving him in a paradox.
