Andrés and his 12-year-old son Pedro live in a deprived neighborhood on the outskirts of Caracas and hardly spend time with each other. While Andrés busies himself with doing odd jobs, Pedro whiles away his time roaming the streets with his mates and learning to come to grips with the continuing violence around him. After killing another boy while at play, father and son sense the impending revenge and flee their home overnight, a snap decision that will radically change the course of their lives.
