While the Mexican drug war rages, thousands of mothers search for their missing children. The stories of Natividad, Guadalupe, and Margarita intertwine to convey the different ways each searches and faces uncertainty: one turns to the FBI, another to the Mexican President, and the last tries to save her grandson by returning to her routine. A portrait of Mexico today.
