In Isla Maciel, a Buenos Aires neighborhood plagued by drug trafficking, “El Galgo,” a former hitman for “La Madrina” is released from prison as a disgraced man, scraping by with petty theft to survive.
One night, La Madrina’s gang offers him a new opportunity: a job as a “gatillero,” shooting at the front of a business to intimidate its owner. Though the task is beneath a hitman of his stature, he accepts it out of necessity and a desire to work for his old boss again.
But in a corrupt neighborhood, nothing is as it seems, and a simple job can spiral into a whirlwind of chaos and betrayal. A race against time and his own fate.
