Synopsis

Qui Joté finds herself in a shoot-out during a bank robbery gone wrong, while her hit squad the Sicarias Artísticas is stuck behind police cordons. An evangelical presidential candidate finances her campaign by selling weapons to gangsters and narcotraficantes. The crew-cut husband of a tattooed hairdresser disappears for weeks at a time, while foreigners speaking strange languages show up on her doorstep. Gush Dumbo and Shawn Hanjobby blabber their fears across the airwaves. Life on the border between Consumerland and Narcolandia. But is it all just a new video game or another episode on Kay Hotay’s favorite telenovela? Anonymous social media posts? A bit of fake news? Pay-for-view? Ads for new movies and television shows? Kay just can’t draw the line between her life and the mediated world that surrounds her...
