Synopsis by Rebecca Flint Marx
Set in Peru's capital city of Lima, this urban drama sees the eponymous M (Santiago Magill) struggle to make a life for himself. With no prospects for employment, M takes to whiling away his time in the company of his pal Coyote (Jorge Madueno), flirting with girls, and club-hopping. Unfortunately, monetary temptation lures M into a life of crime, with petty thievery soon replaced by more serious offenses -- and equally serious consequences.
