A 'security-freaked', paranoid community chases a teenager they believe is responsible for the killing of an old lady.
They're wrong but their fury make them blind to the truth.

This film is interesting in many ways.
It reminds somewhat of the fate of the children in Luis Buñuel's Los Olvidados and of Sin Destino.
La Zona is also an interesting film from a sociologic point of view.
As a manifestation of the daily concern about security and architecture, it reminds of Arkitekturmuseet's (Museum of Architecture in Stockholm) exhibition On Cities, where a video about Rio De Janeiro showed how "safe" helicopter rides had become in comparison to car rides, where car-jacking is a daily threat.
The solution is disproportionate.
