Poignant documentary about the lives of three men, set in one of the most dangerous cities in the world: San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Drug-related and gang violence are ubiquitous.
Priest and furniture maker Daniel Pacheco lives in one of the most dangerous cities in the world: San Pedro Sula, Honduras. He tries to save lives, but that is no simple matter in a country with staggeringly high murder rates. Not only the drug cartels, but also the police and army make countless victims. This documentary also follows a TV journalist, who reports on the gang violence, and a hitman who claims he dreams of a more pious life. Nobody seems to be capable of ending the horrible violence.
