Overview
Alfredo is a homeless man who happens upon a truck full of fruit that appears to be abandoned and takes the opportunity to eat some. Once he's satisfied his hunger, he discovers a fortune inside one of the crates. It's the loot hidden by some thieves who crash during their getaway. Frightened, he hides the money under the church statue and confesses what happened to the local priest. The situation worsens when the robbers reappear in town.
