Niños de la mafia (2000)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

"El Güero" is a street child, protected only by Lola, a gallant woman who lavishes on him a little food and affection, among all the misery "Güero" is forced to steal parts of cars in a junkyard. He is beaten when he is caught stealing, and is injured, walks through the city where he is almost run over. The driver of the car is Rogelio, Capo Guzmán's right hand. He picks up and heals "Güero" little by little and gains his affection. He invites him to work within the group of street children for the Capo organization.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
