After a year abroad, seventeen-year-old Alf returns to his Catholic boys' school, only to find that no longer relates to his mates, who are popular and athletic. He finds himself drawn to new classmate Oliver, but in an attempt to dispel rumours, Alf bonds with his old friends and ends up committing a crime to prove he still belongs.

Azucena, a woman in her thirties, approaches Julio, a teenage boy living in a group home, for reasons he doesn’t understand. As they spend time together, an uneasy closeness grows, changing the shape of a bond neither expected to find.

The film features a group of Afro-Mexican musicians from the Pacific Coast of Mexico. They live with the shore, speaking through their instruments and microphones about the traditions they cherish and the love of their homeland. Their music provides a space for the film to explore, encompassing both the historical depth and cultural characteristics of the local civilization, and paying homage to the people, the sea, and the land that exists here. Here, music not only flows with sheer beauty and passion, but is also the language that unites people.
