Reserved and private, 19-year-old José (magnetic newcomer Enrique Salanic) lives with his adoring mother in Guatemala City, where they eke out a hardscrabble existence. José fills his free moments playing with his phone and finding random sex with other men arranged on street corners and dating apps. When he meets attractive and gentle Luis (Manolo Herrera), a migrant from the rural Caribbean coast, they pursue an unexpected relationship with more emotion than José has ever felt. He experiences new passions, pains, and self-reflection that push him to rethink his life.
