Mostro


Fiction | Mexico | 2021 | 75 min | Spanish

Synopsis

A couple of teenage factory workers spend their afternoons consuming chemical substances in a self built hut. The ecstatic trips and the visions they experiment make them forget for a moment about their noisy industrial city life. But when Alexandra disappears right before his eyes, Lucas must deal with a corrupted system. His visions deteriorate, just like the monster that imprisons them.
