    • Synopsis
    • Zambrano is a young criminal with notable sporting aptitudes, He arrives with the only hope of joining the legendary prison American football team, known as The Dogs of Santa Martha. For Zambrano, years of expertise in stealing cars on his own are left behind. He never imagined that his sporting aspirations over time would involve him in a criminal organization, because The Dogs are also known as THE 4TH COMPANY, the death squadron inside the penitentiary in the service of the Administration. Although they enjoy privileges and control the jail, prisons are barely schools of crime, because Santa Martha is the University and now they must graduate.
