"A Tres Pesos" narrates a common day in the subway of Mexico City one of the largest cities in the world.
The opening and closing of the station doors enframes the day as well as the film.
In between, the world of the underground: Almost anything and everything is advertised for sale, music is played live and canned, you get theater performances to see and the people who need transport from A to B, surrounded by million others but in the end, alone with themselves.
“A Tres Pesos“ is a portrait of this mega city, as well as of the loneliness of the 21st Century.
