A flashback scene shows a man entering a building with a gun, he chases a man into a back room and shoots him in the back (we see the wounded man fall sideways into a hallway; there is no blood). Gang members arm themselves with rifles and handguns, walk into an outdoor soccer training court and begin firing; several children run away and are not hurt, and the coach is seen lying dead, sprawled face down on the concrete (no blood is visible). Gang members using their rifles force people out of their vehicles, and they drive to another community to get more weapons and confront another gang: A long battle scene follows in which both gangs walk through dark stone staircases and shadowy passageways with guns drawn, and several young men are shot and killed, falling face down (we see no blood). A man carries the body of his dead teenage son in a wheelbarrow up a hill; the arms and legs of the boy are hanging out of the wheelbarrow. A man pulls a gun on a young girl and robs her; two teenagers apprehend him, take him away and off camera, and we hear a loud gun shot (we hear later that the man has been murdered by a gang). An apartment has been ransacked and we see a young woman in a chair, while women from a rival barrio gang are shearing her dreadlocks. A gang of male and female youths enters an elderly woman's small house, they sprinkle rubbing alcohol, push the woman out the door, ignite the alcohol and burn the house down (we see three scenes of the house burning and the old woman sits on a curb). A teenage father leaves a one-year-old boy alone on a beach, the child runs up and down crying, and then runs into the water; the teenager goes back to the beach and finds the child in the care of a stranger. A man is apprehended in the street by two police officers and forced to his knees; other officers appear and they all slap the man several times and kick him, and they handcuff him and take him away (we are told that the man has stolen credit cards). At a youth dance, gang members dance with rifles and handguns in both hands, they shoot at the ceiling in celebration of a coming gang war, and the young men and women chant about winning it. A teen boy aims a gun In a barrio a young man and a young woman climb a tower of trash in order to take a walk. Two teenage boys carry a one-year-old child on the back of a motorbike. Several people crowd into a small grocery, pull down the door, they hear loud gunshots off-screen and when things are quiet, they open the door and leave. A young man learns that his father, whom he does not know, is in prison for murder and robbery.
