Synopsis
Paralyzed from the waist down by a stray police bullet, the title character in Alejandro Landes’s film spends his days selling minutes on his cell phone, flirting with his comely neighbor— and secretly plotting his revenge. Landes worked on the film for five years, creating a tale that joins the most intimate details of Porfirio’s day-to-day life with a recreation of his attempt to hijack an airplane
