Alan and his father Alberto flee from the painful loss of his mother. While hiding in a secluded housing unit, Alan discovers hidden messages from his uncle that lead him to believe that his father is a werewolf. His life and his neighbors’ lives are in danger. Alan decides to do something once for all. Destroying the beast does not seem a far-fetched plan in the violent reality he lives day by day.

Alan’s daily life as a driver and assistant to a federal deputy entails enduring the anger and arrogance of his superior; sufering the contempt of the deputy’s bodyguards and, above all, cleaning up all traces of his boss’ misbehaviour. Today, however, Alan has decided that things will be different.
