During Bolivia's annual Carnival, wealthy Hector is carjacked by two punks who hold him at gunpoint and demand that he take them to his apartment so they can rob him. They arrive at his apartment and take the elevator up. When the elevator becomes stuck, the three men are trapped for three days in a claustrophobic battle of wits. The story is brought to life by director Tomás Bascopé. With a runtime of 1h 40m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
