The price to be paid for due respect among the marginal pitchers of the neighborhood may cost Arriaga's life, that dreams of being a martyr on the fringes of society inspired by the legends like Tupac, Notorious BIG, NAS, WU-TANG Clan. Everything happens in one place, everything revolves around a single moment, what is suspicious only the unexpected can unfold.
