After his studies abroad, Fernando returns home. There he will have to take on a mysterious mission that his late father has entrusted to him in a letter: to find the person responsible for the death of his lover.

In his investigations, Fernando encounters all sorts of strange characters closer to madness than he could ever have imagined.
