1985 Ok.ru - Yo El Vaquilla

By the time he was 15, he had over 40 judicial cases. His crimes were not sophisticated: robberies, carjackings, prison breaks, and violent outbursts. He became a myth to the poor and a nightmare to the wealthy bourgeoisie. In 1981, while serving time, he wrote an autobiographical manuscript. That manuscript became the skeleton key for director José Antonio de la Loma.
