Synopsis

The film tells the story of three different people who live in radically different countries and contexts, but who have in common their need to fight against grief and death. The first protagonist is Alex, an Afro-Colombian teenager who lives in Buenaventura and has just said goodbye to his deceased brother. Aurora, from the Philippines, has spent 35 years living in Montreal and one day is in need of caring for her grandson, who has just lost his daughter. Finally, we have David, a boy who is forced to emigrate to Mexico City and who will protect himself from the grief he feels for the death of his father by adopting a tough and cold personality. This Colombian film is directed by Juan Andrés Arango.
