After 30 years, the writer Fernando Vallejo returns to Medellin, the city of his childhood. He meets Alexis, a 16 years old who has been drawn into a world of killing. Anyone who crosses Alexis' path can be a possible victim. Alexis needs no reason to kill. Love begins to blossom between Fernando and Alexis, when one day, a passing motorcyclist shoots Alexis down. Soon, Fernando meets another young boy, Wilmar, who at first glance looks like Alexis. A new love story begins for Fernando, as if in this city reality has been turned upside down, and the dead seem to come alive again.
