A darkly comedic crime thriller about a nobody's chaotic 24-hour descent from accidental hero to hunted outlaw, driven by chance and circumstance.

Maiquél has lost a bet and dyed his hair blond. This seemingly innocuous event triggers a head-on collision with destiny in which he goes from nobody to hero to outlaw — all in 24 hours.
