El Perro, a kidnapped soldier, takes advantage of a confrontation between his captors and the paramilitaries to escape. In his escape, he takes refuge in the house of a peasant family that keeps a dark secret that he must solve to be free.
This is the story of a family that represents the collective memory of Colombia that has lived at war for more than seventy years, a journey through a country submerged in corruption, poor health coverage, and abuse by the military.
