Synopsis : Eduardo, a prosecutor with unresolved past issues, decides to return to his hometown to investigate a series of murders. He is welcomed by some old friends, and the town’s Commissioner. As the investigation develops, it leads to the unveiling of a corrupt ecosystem based on agrochemicals abuse at the expense of the locals - who live in very poor conditions. Driven by these findings, Eduardo will try to overcome trauma. He’s not alone, though: there are stories of shattered lives everywhere he looks.
