Synopsis: A film split into three separate chapters each concerning the issue of love in modern day Mexico City. In the first story, Octavio has fallen in love with his brother's wife, Susana. He begins entering his dog in illegal dogfights in order to save up enough money to run away with her, but eventually learns a powerful lesson when she fails to keep her word. In the second, Daniel has left his wife and daughters for the gorgeous model Valeria, but when she is hurt badly in a car accident, the strain on their relationship is stretched to its limits. In the third chapter, El Chivo is an ex-revolutionary who has become a paid assassin. Saddened that he has lost all contact with his daughter, he takes one final stand when an intended act of kindness turns brutally tragic.
