Summary
Buenos Aires, 1912. A series of brutal murders perpetrated on children is sweeping through the city. A ten-year-old boy hides a secret: sometimes his mind leads him to a dark place in his memory where he witnesses these crimes. Upon discovering his secret, many believe the boy is the murderer. His mother, with support from the forensic police, tries to find a rational explanation for her son's visions. But the murders continue to occur ... And chaos will eventually take over the situation
