- Summary:
- Durante los tiempos de la Guerra Cristera un pequeño ejército de minusválidos alentados por el cura del pueblo decide incorporarse a la lucha y comete toda clase de atropellos por los poblados que van pasando, como raptar y violar multitudinariamente a una mujer que pasea con su novio, a quien hacen correr a balazos. Finalmente son traicionados y los sobrevivientes regresan derrotados a su pueblo. En su ambientación al medio mexicano, Alcoriza convierte a los inválidos en cristeros.
