Three prisoners escape from a train or something. And I think they had to go find a treasure. They shoot some people at some point. Also, one of them had a retarded kid that either got shot or shot someone. Most of the movie takes place on a farm with some old people. Maybe they are holding the old people hostage? That's all I remember.

Don Lázaro warns Nacho about Lola, and Nacho knows his love will be unrequited, but he'll do anything, regardless of how degrading, to be near her. Lola, for her part, can be sadistic.
