The Diablos Rojos (Red Devils) are one of the hallmarks of Panama; buses purchased, repaired and managed almost exclusively by its own drivers. The Panamanian government, which has nationalized transport, wanted to withdraw them from the streets at the end of 2011; but the Red Devils has not abandoned Panamá.

This work aims to witness a way of life; an idiosyncrasy that shows us the colour and sound of the city, and the people that orbit around it.
