In crisis-stricken Venezuela, two former schoolmates run into each other years after graduating and face a question that puts their identity to test. Will they rebuild their homeland or be forced to migrate?

An argument breaks out when she asks him to buy flour for her birthday cake. In an effort to make amends, he resorts to the black market to buy the scarce food, but gets caught in the violent looting of a market.
