Johnny 100 Pesos

Synopsis

In the fall of 1990, 17-year-old Johnny Garcia (Armando Araiza), a low-level crook, becomes involved with four older thugs who are planning to rob a money-laundering business masquerading as a video store. Johnny's ineptitude forces the gang to take hostages, bringing a swarm of exploitative media attention. With Johnny's judgment warped by his growing attraction toward one of the hostages, Gloria (Patricia Rivera), the group struggles to negotiate their escape.
