What came after can only be described as incommensurable joy followed by delusion. In six games played during the qualifiers, Colombia gave up only two goals. The Argentine fans at El Monumental, which included Maradona in the stands, gave Los Cafeteros, the best South American team at the time, a standing ovation. After sailing comfortably through the always tricky South American qualification, Colombia sealed its ticket (and perhaps its fate) to USA 1994 by giving one of the most memorable performances in soccer history and beating invincible Argentina in Buenos Aires 5-0. The captain was ready for World Cup glory and possibly a future in Europe. Three years later, the Colombian squad was in its prime, and at the center of it all was AndrГ©s Escobar. Still, the teamвЂ™s overall performance made it clear to the world that Los Cafeteros were to be taken seriously. However, a heartbreaking loss against Cameroon in the Round of 16 was a drawback. A famous last-minute draw against West Germany (who would win the World Cup against Argentina in the final) helped Colombia advance to the knockout stage. Even though household names like Carlos Valderrama, Rene Higuita, and Faustino Asprilla were making headlines across South America and Europe, everyone in Colombia knew that there was only one captain, a true gentleman of soccer: Andres Escobar.ДЄfter a 28-year World Cup drought, Colombia had a taste of glory during Italia 1990. When he was called to join the national team at 21, he already had the reputation of a focused, well-spoken вЂњveteranвЂќ with a rare elegant style. Nacional became the first Colombian team to win the continentвЂ™s most important title. Just three years after his debut, he led Los Verdolagas to continental conquest, winning the Copa Libertadores against Club Olimpia de Paraguay.

As a young, talented center-back who grew up on the streets of MedellГn, he quickly became a crucial player in the lineup for AtlГ©tico Nacional, a powerhouse in South America. Maturana is considered the father figure and architect of the first golden generation that took Colombia to the highest level of world soccer during the chaos and civil unrest for the country.ДЄt only 19, AndrГ©s Escobar took Colombian soccer by storm.

When asked years later about the murder of Andres Escobar shortly after an infamous first-round elimination from the 1994 World Cup.

These were the words of Francisco Maturana, the illustrious Colombian national team manager. No, AndrГ©s Escobar was a football player killed by society.вЂќ The man then takes the girls heart home with him, blends it in a blender and then feeds it to his dog and calmly sits down to watch his TV.вЂњOur society believes that football killed AndrГ©s. He then mounts the corpse and has sex with it, all the while taking pictures of himself in the act. The mortician apparently overcome by some twisted desire, proceeds to strip her naked and mutilate the young girls corpse. Then he turns his attention to the dead body of a young female who died in a car crash. The lone mortician who is left in the morgue begins fondling some of the corpses. This is when the film gets uncomfortably vile and disturbing. The other morticians call it a day and leave one behind to finish up his work. The film starts with the average goings on in a morgue. The film is devoid of any real dialogue and focuses on the use of graphic shocking imagery to make its point. In the morgue there is an autopsy-taking place, right before our very eyes.

The film begins deep in the bowels of a Spanish morgue.
