Authenticity is not his strong suit. In a mockumentary-style comedy in the vein of Christopher Guest's Best In Show, there is one goal: make the BEST HOLLYWOOD FILM EVER! Carlos is a Puerto Rican filmmaker - one of many - aiming to make a "Hollywood" film. It has to be extravagant, dramatic, and MUST be in English. Otherwise, he says it cannot be exported. Joa, his best friend and film's producer, tries to help him stay on track and achieve his goal. But even she did not expect him to become a puppy at one of their actresses' feet.

Borunda seems like a small town anywhere, absolutely ordinary, a nice place to live. And it is. Or is it? The people here are like people everywhere, and yet something about them is curiously off-kilter. And one fateful night, in a chain of almost unbelievable events, all their lives will intersect, and things will never be the same again.
