Synopsis: "Nicotina," is a crime caper set in Mexico City about a simple exchange that goes awry, causing the lives of nine unsuspecting characters to explode in one tumultuous night over a fortune in diamonds. Diego Luna stars as computer hacker Lolo, who is infatuated with his neighbor Andrea and catalogs her every move via high-tech peeping devices. Lolo teams with amateur criminals Tomson and his younger counterpart Nene in a deal with a Russian mobster that involves the exchange of diamonds for computer access to Swiss bank accounts. But the deal goes terribly wrong after Lolo's attempts to spoil Andrea's romantic trysts spiral out of control. Down the street, the irritable pharmacist Beto and his fed-up wife Clara get inadvertently entangled in the exchange, along with the humble barber Goyo and his domineering other half Carmen.

Andrea, l love you!

l adore you.

l only did it to protect you!

l've watched you sleeping

like an angel all night...

l have all your practice

sessions on CD.

Open the door,

we can listen to them together!

l've seen you cry in your sleep

and cried with you...

No one knows you better than me.

l don't want you to ever cry again.

l can give you everything you want,

Master classes...

an apartment...

l just want to keep...

keep being your neighbour.

Oh, f*** no...

Hey...

Thousands of silly f***ing things

can kill you before this does.

Thousands.

Nene...

l'll bring it right down.

Alright Lolo, let's go.

Nene, l can't go. l've got problems

with this girl in my building...

-Just bring back my share.

-Lolo, please get in the car.

l've got a serious problem.

And l forgot my glasses.

Lolo, this deal pans out,

no neighbour will resist you.

Whatever then.

But make it quick.

Got a smoke?

Later. lt bothers Thompson

if you smoke in the car.

Okay.

Hey, Thompson.

Stupid cow!

Clara!

Clara!

What's the matter?

This is full of mistakes.

One, two, three boxes without prices.

And who knows how many more...

lt's a few little boxes.

Why can't you just admit

you screwed up?

The problem is that for you

l screw up everything...

so l end up screwing it up.

-So now it's my fault?

-No, it's not like that. lt's just...

You put the labels on wrong

and l end up being the a**hole.

All right, we're done.

Clara, the problem is

l'm dying for a smoke...

and it's makes me nervous.

C'mon...

Don't say l offended you?

You know what?

l'm gonna take a fast shower...

and we'll forget all about accounts

and labels...

which in the end

nobody gives a f*** about.

Then, we'll have a quickie

before some customer comes in.

No, Beto, not today.

Come on, it'll do us good.

Look, look how tense you are...

What is it? Headache?

No, it's not that.

l haven't felt well all day...

Didn't show.

Doesn't show now, either.

Seriously, Beto.

l don't feel well.

Does it repulse you

when l touch you?

When l kiss you?

Answer me, goddamn it!

All of a sudden

you're so sick...

but l heard you giggling with that

a**hole from the lab this morning.

-We were discussing discounts.

-l bet.

You nearly died laughing.

And l give you a headache?

Look what you made me do!

Goddamn it!

What are you doing?

Don't you know what l'm going

through trying to quit that sh*t?

Don't even think about going outside.

There are f***ing maniacs everywhere.

I miss you...

Like the waving trees

miss the autumn...

And in those nights

when sIeep escapes me...

You can't imagine, Iove...

how much I miss you.

I miss you...

in every step...

in which I feeI my soIitude.
