Synopsis

Five men are hired to paint the lines of a road between two Mexican cities. Making their way through more than 200km of asphalt and yellow paint, they will have to finish the job in 15 days. Painting 1 km/hour is slow enough to learn that the lines between good and evil, laughter and despair, life and death are sometimes thiner than one might think. Only Looking for money they will end up knowing each other more than they initially thought and the challenges they will face along the road will change their lives forever. Celso R. García, one of the most promising and refreshing Mexican filmmakers directs this road-movie full of humanity and reflection. Mainly located in San Luís Potosí, México.
