Sinopsis

Igor is a teenager who works with his father exploiting a network of undocumented immigrant workers — an illegal and unethical job. A tragic accident will force Igor to confront his father, question the values he has held until then, make his own decisions, and find his own path. It is a realistic story with a strong ethical and political component, tackling harsh subjects such as illegal immigration and human misery. A social drama that will leave no one indifferent.
