Synopsis
Jairo, sick of living on the fringes of society, fed up with poverty and the hell of his family life, enters the world of crime: that of the "hired assassin." Once he has become steeped in this world of killing for money and dying if necessary, he decides to change the course of his life. But it's already too late to turn back--he's on the road of no return, and there's no way for him to escape his inevitable fate.
