Diablita", Spanish for She Devil, is a satiric and surrealistic lampooning of the Hollywood development process. The story centers around a screenwriter that meets with two studio executives, who then proceed to turn the screenwriters story into a Hollywood style rolling gun battle between two hot and sexy females in order to conform to a commercial marketing strategy. The story is filled with black humor and irony." Says Marco. The interesting thing about the story is that it lampoons itself. It is a Hollywood style production, complete with hyper-kinetic chase sequences, guns, hot women, and fast talking executives. It lampoons itself by being over the top and absurd. The operative word here is hyper-realistic." Marco Continues.
