Santiago 2013. Jesús (18) is in search of his identity. He dances with a Korean dance group, draws animations and cultivates a look related to that. He lives with his father Hector (53) who works away from home. The recent death of Angela, Jesús’ mother and Hector’s wife, has forced to redesign their co-living. They live in an apartment where the TV and silence make up for their incapability to communicate. Hector has a relationship with a younger woman and a conflict at his work that have him in an ethical dilemma. He seems tired of his son and he sees his son’s tastes and friends with distrust. As time goes by, the distance between them grows. One night, Jesús finds himself involved in a murder with other three young boys. The police cannot find them and the media starts covering the news. Jesús, immersed in a state of panic and feeling guilty, decides to tell everything to his father. Hector sends him to the south of Chile, to a small village surrounded by nature, where he intends to hide him for a while. Keeping the secret begins to make things difficult for him. One day, he decides to go to pick him up, but instead of taking him back home, he surprisingly turns him in.
