Cada sesenta minutos secuestran a una persona en América Latina. El 70% de las víctimas no sobreviven. La película se desenvuelve en Caracas y redacta
la historia de Carla (Mia Maestro) y su novio Martin (Jean Paul Leroux) al momento de ser repentinamente secuestrados por Trece (Carlos Julio Molina),
Budu (Pedro Pérez) y Niga (Carlos Madera), quienes se ganan la vida secuestrando a adultos jóvenes para obtener dinero rápido de sus padres ricos. En
un drama aterrorizante, son paseados toda la noche por Caracas mientras esperan que el padre de Carla (Rubén Blades) entregue el rescate - una
cantidad pequeña para un caraqueño rico, equivalente a unos 8 años del salario mínimo venezolano.
In a night pregnant with a strange mix of tension and dizzy abandon, lovers Carla and Martin prowl clubs before drunkenly wandering back to his car.
While he comes across as crass nouveau riche, she appears more liberal. Their conspicuous affluence, however, makes them ideal targets for kidnappers,
and the trio of Trece, Budu and Niga gets a bead on them and promptly sweeps them up at gunpoint. The kidnappers then demand $20,000 to be delivered
in two hours. Carla phones her rich father Sergio to procure the money, but chaos soon ensues.

if we live, and we don't know why." - Steinbeck, Log from the Sea of Cortez
