Eduardo, a prosecutor with an unresolved past, decides to return to his hometown to investigate a series of murders. Waiting for him there are a couple of old friends: Paula and Ramiro, the current local police chief.

Eduardo will try to overcome his trauma following this discovery, but he is not alone: there is an entire population with shattered lives.
