Croniacs
If it’s on-TV, it must be the-truth.
“One Hour with the-Truth” is-broadcast nightly from Miami across Latin America, carrying the-hardest sensationalistic stories it can find. Star anchorman Manolo Bonilla (John Leguizamo) has flown down-to-a small town-in Ecuador with producer Marisa (Leonor Watling) and-cameraman Ivan (Jose Maria Yazpik) on-the-trail of-a child serial killer and-rapist, “The Monster of Babahoyo.”
The accidental death of-a young boy brings the-town-to the-verge of lynching Vincio Cepeda (Damian Alcazar),-a humble traveling salesman. Manolo’s intervention saves the-man’s life, and-makes-a great story-for his show. Vinicio is-put-in jail-for involuntary manslaughter and-he offers Manolo information about the-“Monsturo”-in exchange for-a news story on-TV about his wrongful imprisonment. Manolo accepts, powerfully drawn-to the-dark side he senses-in Vinicio. He begins-to break the-rules, determined-to be the-hero who single-handedly stops the-killer.
