Set in Mexico in the late 1940s, this is the story of the Colonel (Fernando Lujan), who fought in the war to overthrow the clerical rulers years before. Now he dresses up each week and goes to the pier awaiting the arrival of a letter that announces his pension–a letter that he knows will never arrive.
