    • The old thieves, is the story of a generation of thieves who reached their peak in the 1960's in Mexico and are currently serving sentences in prision. It is also the story of the mexican criminal underworld at that time, its codes of ethics and behavior, the diverse "categories" of the offender who settled the city's streets, the alliances of police authorities that allowed them to go on with their illegal activities, the treasons that came as a consequence of such alliances and the price that they wound up paying for it.
