A bit predictable, a bit cliched at times, but overall a decent movie, worth watching. I've been a fan on Juan Minujin since the first seasons of El Marginal, he is a great actor.
In this film, Minujin returns to teach at a high school in the working class barrio where he grew up. His ailing father is working to open a soup kitchen. Both father and son find themselves caught up in a conflict between political candidates, the mayor and his opponent, a local drug dealer. In the midst of this, teacher and students must work to preserve their lives and their humanity. The film has lots of footage from the gritty neighborhood.
