A tense, melancholic mystery about buried guilt and fractured family bonds, set against an isolated, snow-bound landscape where past accusations resurface.

Accused of killing his brother during adolescence, Salvador lives alone in the middle of Patagonia. Several decades later, his brother Marcos and his sister-in-law Laura, come to convince him to sell the lands they share by inheritance.
