Auditions unfold in a museum-like setting, where men engage in improvised performances, rehearsing lines and gestures, all while simulating gunfire and dramatic deaths. The theme of revolution permeates their acts. Interspersed are scenes of a desolate landscape, highlighting three men lost in their quest to join the Mexican Revolution at the dawn of the 20th century. As their water supply dwindles and tensions rise, mistrust brews among them. This blend of historical reenactment and theatrical preparation emphasizes cinema's inherent dramatization of history, while playful nods to iconic songs illustrate the complex layering of revolutionary myth.
