In a mad mix of comedy and political satire, a group of Mexican soldiers hatches a crazy plan: to reclaim the Alamo, that historic fortress in Texas, which they believe should once again be part of their country. It all begins when the Generalissimo of the Mexican forces, a man clearly unable to let go of the past, decides to lead this "reconquest" mission in an epic fashion, although his vision of "glory" is more laughable than frightening.

With a cast of endearing characters, from a brave yet clumsy captain to a skeptical but passionate soldier, tension and humor intertwine as the invasion plans unravel and confusion becomes the true enemy. Meanwhile, the Texan population, caught between fear and amusement, watches the spectacle, finding themselves trapped in a tug-of-war between the comedic and the heroic.

As the Mexican soldiers attempt to carry out their crazy plan, they face not only the logistical challenges of advancing through hostile terrain but also their own insecurities and fears. The film, with its absurd twists and clever dialogue, not only makes us laugh but also invites reflection on cultural identity and stereotypes in a context where laughter is often the best path to understanding. A wild adventure that becomes a celebration of the human spirit, even through the most hilarious blunders.
