From the film-maker:
My aim was to tell a funny story with an unexpected end that will challenge the viewer. On an ordinary day in Mexico a drill general in command of his firing squad is about to execute a prisoner. What will happen if Cabron, one of the soldiers, catches a terrible cold?

A piece inspired by Edouard Manet, The Execution of Maximilian, about 1867-8
