Revenge, redemption and chance are the topics that underpin José Luis Valle’s new film. A man runs his errands: cleans the house, picks up the dry cleaning, pays his debts and buys groceries. Then, inexplicably commits suicide. His death smites his wife, Elvira, who is unaware of the reasons for suicide. At another point, Ulises is assaulted and stripped of the portfolio that held the only photo he kept of her deceased daughter. He sets out to find the thief and kill him. The lives of Elvira and Ulises intersect unexpectedly.

Álvaro is a young photographer conducting a study photographing parts of the human body. Someone told him that at the Mina baths in the Guerrero neighborhood, there's an employee with a "God-sized penis." They call him El Corsario. Inside a private room at the steam baths, Álvaro wants to take his picture. The negotiation becomes a ritual that gives free rein to Jean Genet's intuition: the winner will get either hugged or stabbed. Whatever it is, it has to go deep.
