http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0397613/ Robbing Peter, the debut feature from writer/director Mario F. de la
Vega, tells three stories of crime and betrayal across the U.S.-Mexican
border which intertwine toward a climactic finish. Unable to find work
as a mechanic, Pedro (Louie Olivo Jr.) scores a job from local crime
boss Don Epifiano (Victor Martinez) -- or rather, from the eccentric
drug lord's pet rabbit, Fluffy. Fluffy orders Pedro to accompany a
gringo pilot named Paul (Joe Keyes) on a drug deal into Arizona, but
Pedro misses
his meeting with Paul and
tries to track him down through Paul's girlfriend, Shawna (Robin
Simmons), whom he kidnaps. A flashback reveals more about Shawna and
Paul, a recently paroled felon, and their history with Epifiano that
landed Paul in prison. Add into the mix a hood named Danny (Alejandro
Patino), who ropes his straight-laced brother Nelson (Pedro Pana) into a
scheme to get a hold of the loot, and by the end of the third section,
all involved have come to cross purposes. Robbing Peter was nominated
for four 2004 Independent Spirit Awards: Best First Screenplay, Best
Supporting Female (Simmons), Best Debut Performance (Olivo), and the
John Cassavetes Award for best feature budgeted under 500,000 dollars. ~
