Tigers Are Not Afraid (Vuelven)

Since the beginning of the drug war in 2006

160,000 have been killed and 53,000 have disappeared in Mexico.

Entire areas of some cities are turning into ghost towns.

There are no numbers for the children

the dead and the missing have left behind.

Okay. Fairy tales, guys.

Name some fairy tale characters.

Fairies!

Princes?

Wishes! 3 wishes!

Foxes! Witches! Ghosts!

- What else? - Castles!

And tigers!

Now, using those elements and characters

you're going to write your own fairy tale, okay?

No chatting! Concentrate, guys.

Keep quiet. Focus on your story.

No cheating!

Once upon a time, there was a Prince who wanted to be a tiger.

Tigers never forget.

They're hunters.

Their eyes can see in the dark.

They have fangs, to break bones.

Tigers are not afraid.

Where you going, Caco?

None of your fucking business!

Leave me alone!

Caco, come on!

But the Prince couldn't become a tiger.

Because he had forgotten how to be a Prince.

We forget that we are Princes,

warriors,

tigers.

When the things from outside come to get us.

Stay on the floor...

Estrella!

Here. 3 wishes!

Like in fairy tales...

3 wishes.

It's going to be all right!

Let's go back to our fairy tale list...

Classes suspended until further notice.

We forget who we are,

when the things from outside come to get us.

TIGERS ARE NOT AFRAID

Mom, I'm home!

With your vote, Servando Esparza

can bring back safety and peace...

Mom, they closed the school. There's no classes.

Want me to waste you? Huh?

Leggo of my lamp! Ew!!

Whadaya want, Morro?

The tiger?

Shine, he wants you tellin' the tiger story.

Come on, Morro, again??

Don't come later saying you can't sleep!

Here. Give it some epic.

There was this very rich dude

he had many wild animals.

He had tigers,

lions,

pumas,

panthers,

jaguars...

But one day the Huascas came.

And they killed him.

Caco and the other Huascas

killed all his animals.

But when they got to the tiger's cage...

He had escaped.

Now he's prowling the dark alleys

angry,

and hungry.

He feeds on:

dogs,

cats...

and children with no parents.

And that's it.

Please, leave your message after the tone.

Mom, where are you?

I'm hungry.

Please, call me.

I'm a Princess?

No. You are a warrior.

And then?

And then the spell was broken,

and the Prince was a Prince again.

And then?

And then it's time to go to sleep,

because tomorrow is a school day!

Estrella! You have to sleep!

Mom! When can I have your birdies bracelet?

When you"re a big girl...

And I'm not around anymore.

I wish my mom would come back.

Estrella...

Estrella.

I'm here...

You still around?

- Let go! - No!

Let go, kiddo!

No, this is my mom's!

What do you want??

Your mom needs shit! The Huascas took her!

'Tis not true! She came back last night!

Estrella...

Come...

MISSING

Ugly ass movie...

so much anger, dude...

Pure bad vibe, guys.

Dead people and shit.

Let's see what you got us...

Beans? Again? Fancy.

Where did you steal all this shit?

More phones?

Like we had anybody to call!

We can call each other, asshole!

Another iPhone?

You haven't even sold that one with the dragon!

- This is not for selling, butthead. - Gimme that.

You picking the green peas again?

Tell'im, Shine!

Tucsi, eat them green peas.

I don't like green peas!

Eat them! They're your veggies!

Shit! Shit!

- Who's the chick? - She's stuck.

- Stuck to what? - To my ass.

I'm hungry.

We don't give a shit you're hungry. Right, Pop?

Yeah. Tiger should eat your ass. True dat, Tucsi?

True. Tiger likes human meat.

Specially female.

Show her, Morro.

Goodbye, kiddo.

No! Please! Don't make me go home!

- Let her go! - I don't want to go to my house!!

Let her stay.

The Huascas will grab her. She won't last long.

- They'll take her to Chino. She's toast. - She's a chick.

Chicks are bad luck.

Let's cover up. Come on.

Morro, do something, dude!

Stop stuffing your face, runt!

Thank...

Morro! What did I say?

Mom?

Estrella...

What's wrong??

The Huascas??

If you wake me up again I'll kick your pink girly ass!!

Kiddo!

The Huascas are coming!!

You run somewhere else! Go!

Shine!

Move it!

Now! Run!

I will kill you, motherfucker!!

That's my gun, asshole!

- Let's go, Shine! - Where did you get that gun, fucker?

You got my phone, son of a bitch?

You'll give me that phone back, asshole!!

Shine!

And Morro?

They took him!

They nabbed his little footsie!

He left his plushy tiger, dude!

What happens to the ones they take?

They grab'em and take'm to Chino.

Chino chops them off and they sell the parts.

They're narco-satanics. They have a deal with the devil.

- And they have satanic virtuals. - Rituals. Not virtuals.

- They can be virtual! - No, they are really real, not virtu...

The women, they kill.

The kids... look at me!

The kids they take who knows where.

And you know why they took Morro?

Because of you!

Because they saw there's a chick with us!

- No, they wanted that cell... - No! It was YOUR fault!

I can make that Huasca disappear.

Go kill him.

We'll take you to his place.

You kill him, you can stay with us.

- How will I get in? - You jump.

You knock.

And you kill him.

Uhm... I don't think so.

That asshole killed your mom.

Yours too.

You kill him. You're the man here.

True dat, Shine.

If you don't turn into a man and kill'im,

tomorrow he'll come for you, he'll find you

and cut you in pieces and eat you in a satanic ritual!

- Or virtual. - Virt... I don't give a shit, OK?

Thing is, kiddo...

if he doesn't die, we all die.

Go! Move! Go!
