Argentina. An old gas station, lost in the immensity of the transcontinental road, is the refuge hideaway of introspective Leon (César Troncoso). A man of few words, few gestures and no friends, his solitude is broken only by either any trucker passing through there to buy gas. Or the always humorous visits of sarcastic Silas (Nelson Diniz), a biker with retiree/ hippie vibe. Until one day, when the enigmatic and unexpected arrival of Ana (Fernanda Moro) radically transforms Leon and Silas typical day.
At the foot of the imposing Andes mountains, secrets and hopes that seemed to be buried, come back to life, re-opening old wounds and forever changing the lives of the protagonists.
