Las Calles del D.F. Synopsis & Summary

Synopsis

Average everyday citizens face such obstacles as corruption, kidnapping, violence, and racism in an affecting collection of nine stories of survival on the streets of Mexico City. In the world's most densely populated city it's easy to fall through the cracks. Though the people who walk these streets remain determined to overcome any challenge that arises, sometimes people of all ages and social circumstances find themselves overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of life's many obstacles. - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
