My mother was murdered and my father was left alone to take care of his five teenage children. Since my father could not offer us consolation, he took us to the beach, to the cabin of a stranger. Everything changed when we were in that house, united by alcohol and depression. It was still summer and all I wanted was to leave that place.

“Veneno” is a young man who frequents remote roadside diners, where he hooks up with truck drivers. There, he meets “Muñeco,” a lonely driver struggling with alcoholism and drug addic- tion.

Everything changes when people from Veneno’s past reappear, putting both of their lives at risk. See More
