On the desolated coast of Veracruz, 17-year-old Sebastián starts to run his uncle’s rent-by-the-hour motel on his own. There he meets Miranda, a regular client, who goes to the motel to meet a lover who always keeps her waiting.

The Son of His Father

El hijo de su padre

Gabriel is a responsible and loving father. When Esther, his mother, announces that she is selling the family home, the emptiness left by Arturo, Gabriel's father, resurfaces. Gabriel is so confused that he refuses to sell the house and questions his own paternity. To try to understand these mixed feelings, Gabriel will have to dig into his past and definitively heal the void left by his father.
