To the east of San José, in the midst of marginality, poverty and social and institutional indifference, a community of over 35,000 struggles, every minute of the day, to survive. Amidst this scenario of drowning and despair, a corner of the town has become a meeting place for Larry, Héctor, Douglas "The Transformer", José and group of young men. For them, the corner is their last chance, the last resort, not to escape, but to meet, and why not, for salvation.

It's a film that dares you to laugh at relationship wreckage while forcing you to confront the uncomfortable truth that the line between passionate love and mutual destruction is terrifyingly thin.
