17岁的卡洛斯（Carlos）质疑他在80年代中期墨西哥城的灵魂盗贼整合中所扮演的角色，他不愿意参加青少年的大男子主义，更喜欢在听经典摇滚时修补电子产品。他在格拉（Gera）有着友善的精神和最好的朋友，对格拉（Gera）不可动摇的姐姐丽塔（Rita）的痴迷使他迅速成长，他对自己的局外人地位感到轻松。当丽塔（Rita）邀请他们在臭名昭著的前卫俱乐部阿兹台克（Aztec）观看乐队时，他们被带入了表演艺术，前卫音乐和性流动性的狂热世界，欢迎两拳少年政治和成人迫在眉睫的威胁。受俱乐部老板和进步艺术家尼科（Nico）的启发，卡洛斯（Carlos）睁大眼睛进行身份政治实验，品尝享乐主义的禁果，以格拉（Gera）的奉献为代价。
Questioning his role within the soul thieving conformity of mid-'80s Mexico City, 17-year-old Carlos is loath to participate in adolescent machismo antics, preferring instead to tinker with electronics while listening to classic rock. He has a kindred spirit and best friend in Gera and a burgeoning infatuation with Gera's untouchably cool sister Rita, an artist at ease with her outsider status. When Rita invites them to see her band at infamous avant-garde club the Aztec, they're introduced to an uninhibited world of performance art, edgy music, and sexual fluidity-welcome counteragents to two-fisted teen politics and the imminent threat of adulthood. Inspired by club owner and progressive artist Nico, wide-eyed Carlos experiments with identity politics, tasting the forbidden fruits of hedonism at the expense of Gera's devotion.
