This Flim Amores Perros Which means "Loves a Bitch" a Mexican film Directed by Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu in 2000. It is a three-part story in one,with three total strangers, whose lives are forever changed by a devastating car crash. The film opens with a chase through the crowded streets of Mexico City. Octavio one of the drivers played by Gael García Bernal, a good-natured young man desperately in love with his abusive brother Ramiro's who is played by Marco Perez wife, Susana (Vanessa Bauche). Things start to change when Susana finds out shes pregnant again with Ramiro's baby, Octavio then suggests they run away together. They enter Ramiro;s dog into a dog fighting competion to raise money.
The driver of the other car is Valeria played by Goya Toledo, a successful fashion model whose career is cut short when Octavio runs a red light. She is then Confined to a wheelchair with a smashed leg and cared for by her married lover. Valeria begins to unravel then her little dog follows a rubber ball through a hole in the floor of her apartment and disappears.
The third story centers on a former revolutionary turned assassin known only as El Chivo played by Emilio Echevarria — "The Goat" — who lives with his pack of stray dogs. El Chivo rescues the seriously wounded Cofi from the scene of the accident and nurses him back to health, an act of kindness he'll live to regret.
Besides the Crash the stories dont really interwine,but you can see character pop up once in a while in the background of the others Many people would compare this movie to Puple Fiction due to the ultra-violent story about hitmen, stickups, a fixed fight and a car crash told in fragmented time. I didn't really enjoy the whole dog fight scenc the movie was great !
