TIJUANA MAKES ME HAPPY
A film by Dylan Verrechia & James Lefkowitz, USA/Mexico, 2007, 79´.
Original version with Portuguese subtitles.

On his 15th birthday anniversary, all that Indio wanted as a present was a winning fighting cock named Gyro. As his father cannot give him the animal, he presents Indio with Brianda, a young prostitute. The birthday surprise does not turn out as expected, but Indio is determined to buy the fighting cock and tries to make money selling appetizers, washing cars and eventually transporting drugs between Mexico and the USA. His dream changes when he reencounters Brianda.
