Elena travels to Capurganá, a remote town in Colombia,
to try and sell her family’s old beach house and cover the
medical expenses of her father’s illness. At the beach, she
meets Teo, a three-year-old boy wandering on the shore
while his mother is busy selling necklaces. Elena spends
the afternoon with Teo and as the boy shuttles back and
forth between Elena and his mother, their responsibility
blurs – until, unnoticed, Teo disappears, probably in the
sea. Despite an intensive search, Teo is nowhere to be
found. In shock, Elena must return to the city, where she
tries to go back to juggling her work as a doctor, caring
for her ill father, and a pregnancy she’s been keeping a
secret. When Teo’s father arrives in the city begging for
help, her guilt about the accident deepens, forcing her
to face her fear and the weight of her own impending
motherhood.
