Alejandro, a 55 years old lonely man, carries the burden and the guilt of a dark past. Aging, he seeks a new identity, but cannot rid himself of his ghost and manias, eschewing an objective look at reality. Little by little we find out why his past is such a burden to him. Alejandro is a former henchman who committed atrocious acts during Pinochet’s dictatorship. Decades later, he seeks redemption and tries to give new meaning to his own life.
