When guitar player El Mariachi (Carlos Gallardo) arrives in a small Mexican town, drug lord Moco (Peter Marquardt) mistakes him for Azul (Reinol Martinez), an assassin who carries a trademark guitar case full of guns. Now he must elude Moco's henchmen, who plan to shoot first and ask questions later. First-time indie filmmaker Robert Rodriguez famously made the wildly popular gritty crime drama on a $7,000 budget.
