A lighthearted crime caper built on family loyalty and romantic entanglement, where a nephew's investigation becomes a vehicle for exploring love and sacrifice.

Éder is arrested after confessing the murder of a man. Duca, his nephew, is sure that his uncle confessed the crime to protect his girlfriend, Soraya, ex-wife of the deceased, so he enlists two of his friends to help prove his theory.
