Story
If you want to know what is Slam, you have to come see it. Freaks, piercings, thongs and a lot of cream. 100% wild.
Summary
Fito's heart pounded as he neared the Erasmus scholarship announcement board, his dream of English immersion in England hanging by a thread. First test passed, now he waited alongside fellow hopefuls for that final exam. Meanwhile, his father tasked him with retrieving their newly revamped rotisserie truck, resembling a colossal roasted chicken. Toño, meanwhile, clung to journalism's precarious slope, freelancing at 'Chill Out' magazine. Their hiring was down to one reporter this year, and Toño's rival was Oliver, the entitled son of the owner who craved independence from his parents' monthly allowance. Toño needed a standout scoop to secure the job. As they watched TV footage of the upcoming Cactus Festival, featuring rock sensation Slam, an idea sparked - securing Slam's first-ever interview would do just that. But with no funds for train tickets, how could they reach the festival? The gleaming roasted chicken truck might just be their solution.
