Heraldo undertakes a trip to find out who his missing father was. To do this, he must cross a big desert zone in Colombia on his old motorcycle.
On the road, in the high and rocky mountains, he has an accident that leaves him wounded at the bottom of an abyss. There, Salomón and Magdalena, a couple who lives hidden among the arid landscape, find him and care for him.
They feed him with cactus and treat his injuries with salt, but Heraldo’s exterior wounds are just a sign of his scarred soul. By erasing the traces of his past, Heraldo can return to the path.
