Amores Perros is a bold and intensely emotional look at the lives that collide in a Mexico City car crash. The film is structured in three overlapping stories. Octavio is a young aimless loser who has a crush on Susana who is married to his abusive brother. Daniel, a successful editor, has left his wife to live with Valeria, a supermodel. El Chivo is an embittered hitman who receives a commision to kill a philandering businessman. These disparate characters become entangled in the fate of a dog named Cofi. A profound and provocative story in Spanish with English subtitles. Contains violence and harsh language.
