El Chuncho is robbing arms from the mexican army in order to sell them to Elias, the leader of the revolutionaries. During a train robbery, he meets El Niño, a young american who joins his bunch of outlaws. Both become friends but El Niño's secret desire is to approach Elias and kill him.

Highly recommended.
