Intertwining three storylines on the theme of animalistic desires, Amores Perros charts the fates of a young man caught up in the world of dogfighting, a supermodel whose career is wrecked by a car accident and a homeless hitman who tries to connect to his estranged daughter. Iñárritu’s brilliant, but often brutal, feature debut contains shocking scenes of dog fighting, all of which was simulated for the camera.
