Plot

Ciudad Bendita is a history of love set in the heat of a popular market, a love story between two peddlers, two losers, two people of the heap, as anonymous as any. She, Blessed Sanchez has a detail that obscures its beauty: is lame. He, John Wolf, in turn, is a antigalán of birth, a man whose only virtue seems to be the music. But the only obstacle between love and Blessed John is herself.

Blessed happens that Sanchez loves another: Yunior Market, a metrosexual extreme gallantry seducing any woman you want. And although John Lobo hundred a hundred songs and juggling to conquer, she just accepts it as the best friend I have ever met. This is, therefore, the love story of a stubborn and disadvantaged. A love-faced goal down.

Ciudad Bendita is the great tribute to unrequited love, because Jean Paul Blessed Lathulerie made their city, although both say no.

It is also the story of a country, a people, an entire community living on peddling, a handful of survivors who dream learn the key happiness in the muddy streets of a Latin American city.
