Pamela Mendoza, Tommy Párraga, and Lucio Rojas star in Peruvian writer-director Melina León’s monochromatic, vérité-style drama. In 1988, a poor Quecha villager loses her baby girl to a shadowy human trafficking syndicate immediately after giving birth in a private clinic. She and her husband turn to a courageous young newspaper journalist after government officials prove to be apathetic to their plight.
