National Mechanics

Mechanic Luis loads his family into the car for a day at the races, anticipating simple entertainment. Instead, the outing spirals into a chaotic tapestry of absurd and poignant incidents. Betrayals flare in the pits, violence simmers in the stands, and the sudden death of an elder casts a sobering shadow over the spectacle. Against the roar of engines, a microcosm of Mexican society unravels, where personal ambitions and societal pressures collide with darkly comic results. The racetrack becomes an arena for human folly and fragile connections.
