Pablo, a wandering laborer, has imprisoned himself in a hell of alcoholism. Cruz, a widow, reaches out to the troubled man, but even her compassion may not be enough to save him.

A raw, unflinching look at struggle and despair. It feels like a heavy, worn coat on a cold, lonely night, punctuated by moments of fragile hope and profound sadness.
