- You don't think
- I understand you?
- Excuse me, doctor.
- It's time for his medicine.
- I'm not taking the medicine.
- Mauricio, don't worry, it's nothing...
- No, I'm not taking it off.
- Relax.
You should stick
to cell phones.
Homemade masks
are not a big seller.
I don't want to sell it. There's
something written in the back of it.
It's an inscription
to ward off evil spirits.
The kids do it with
things like the boogeyman.
But "Shapishico,"
that's interesting.
Why? What is "Shapishico"?
It's a part
of the folklore here.
It's a kind of ancient evil.
It's a spirit that would
infect the bodies of men...
Latching to their own suffering
until it destroys them.
Some ancient tribes used yag as a conduit
between Shapishico and the child,
believing that it
would grow inside of him.
Until when the spirit
was strong enough...
They held a ceremony with the rest of
the tribe where they drank yag...
And the infected would sacrifice
himself releasing the spirit.
Self-sacrifices are essential
for the ritual.
So this guy would kill himself,
infecting everybody, why?
It's only purpose is to spread.
It drives you into madness to the
point where one takes his own life.
Do people still
believe this stuff?
Spirits, demons, monsters...
They are just words we created
for what we don't understand.
But beneath the superstition,
there is truth.
Do you think I can borrow this?
Just be careful with it.
There are not many of those.
I'll take care of it.
Thanks, Hector.
Take care.
Hey.
Melody tells me
She says, you've been seeing things,
something about your brother?
You know, I've been there.
I've seen the things
that you are seeing.
What are you talking about?
We all have.
It's part of being one of us.
Your eyes are open for the first
time and the light is blinding.
Why didn't you tell me
all this before?
I did.
I told you the yag would open your
mind to the spiritual world...
To help you confront
your demons...
To embrace them.
How do I make it stop?
When you understand
that nothing matters,
not life, not death,
then you will be ready.
I'm ready now.
This road was once part
of the Aburr trail.
They believed that this trail would
lead to the top of the world.
And as a rite of passage...
A boy...
Would out go into the night...
Find the trail...
To face the darkness alone.
When the Spaniards came...
The Aburr people,
they were overrun...
But instead of surrendering,
the warriors, they marched
to the top of the trail
and they hung themselves.
For they believed it was better
to die free...
Than to live as a slave.
And to this day, their sacrifice
for freedom is honored.
Hundreds...
Gather each year...
To ride this trail.
That's why you brought me here?
To climb a trail?
Sh*t!
You want to see
a stampede, Michael?
It's a pure animal instinct,
a group of individuals with
a singular mind. It's chaos!
You put a man in front of a stampede,
We don't run.
You stay on the road
until it's over.
Until what's over?
The stampede.
Remember, you're already dead.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, right there.
Yo b*tch!
What the f*** are you doing?
What?
Are you f***ing crazy?
You're tagging over mine.
What? That faded thing,
you can't claim that.
- Don't touch her!
- Michael. No, it's okay.
What's up, gringo?
Are you a tough guy?
Shh! Shh! Shh!
Your tag... was sh*t.
You must have inked
it with your p*ssy.
It was actually
your girlfriend's p*ssy.
This doesn't concern you.
It's none of your business.
I really don't want
a beef with you.
It is my business now.
What's up, you son of a b*tch!
Back off!
You too, motherfuckers.
What's up?
Cute knife, f*ggot.
Get down on the ground.
On the ground!
Don't think.
Just do it.
Do it. Do it.
Finish it. Finish it.
Come on! Come on!
Who's the tough guy now, huh?
Welcome to the dead men.
Remember this feeling.
It will be with you
until the day you die.
Tomorrow night, at our party,
we're celebrating in your honor.
To Michael!
What is all this?
We're celebrating.
What?
I'm a dead man now.
Come on, I need to talk to you.
Are you serious, right now?
Yes, come on.
You brought me here.
I didn't bring you here
to be one of them.
I brought you here because you
didn't have anywhere else to go.
Look, I really
wanted to help you.
I don't need your help.
You know, Jacob doesn't have
all the answers.
You don't have to be him.
- This isn't about Jacob.
This is about me.
And I'm feeling f***ing great.
You'd be happy for me.
You know what?
I'm done caring
about insignificant sh*t.
So I'm insignificant?
F*** you!
Hey!
- You're hurting me.
- Good.
You know, some tattoo
doesn't change who you are.
makes you stronger, you're weak.
away from his problems.
I thought you were
better than this.
Men. Am I right?
Melody!
Melody?
Danny...
Danny?
Danny?
Danny.
Danny...
Danny.
Vince! Vince! Get an ambulance!
What happened?
Vince!
Vince! Answer me!
Answer me, please!
Shapishico.
Self-sacrifices are essential
for the ritual.
Hector, I need you.
Hector, I need you!
What happened?
What happened?
I took the yag... I've been having
nightmares, only while I'm awake.
I don't know, I don't know what to do.
I need your help, okay?
What are you talking about?
Sit down, sit down.
My friend Vince
slit his wrists.
We were seeing the same things
you showed us with that book.
If I don't do something, the same
thing is going to happen to me.
If this has something to do with
yag, you need to talk to you Taita.
With what?
Your Taita.
A shaman. Who was leading
your ceremony?
Nobody was. They just gave me
that sh*t and I took it.
Yag is not some street drug.
It's a doorway
to a spiritual life.
And without a Taita,
you have left that door open.
Whoever gave you the yag
would have known that.
It was those, these guys that I've been
staying with at this abandoned hospital.
I know someone who can help.
Many claim to understand yag,
but they are liars
and manipulators.
What you're seeing
is not your brother.
There is a very dark force inside
you, using your feelings against you.
Shapishico.
The tribes of Shapishico died
off, but the spirit remained.
Their killings,
their sacrifices and rituals...
The hospital lives at the heart
of where all this took place.
That evil is responsible for what
happened to the children there.
They wanted
to resurrect the spirit...
To create a new
generation of followers.
But they all died, right?
Not all of them.
We are closing now for today.
We are closing out today.
It's okay, I'm just
returning this for a friend.
Shapishico demands a sacrifice.
But using yag with proper intentions
will give you the chance to confront it.
We must begin now.
