Julio, a model neighbour and businessman, likes to walk through the lower-class neighbourhood that reminds him of his humble origins and above all, of his success climbing the social ladder. One day while having lunch, he overhears a conversation about the red-light district in one of the neighbourhoods on his daily route to work. As he himself will come to admit, that day marks the beginning of the end. Driven by an unknown impulse, he finds himself in his car one evening soliciting the services of Daiana, an adolescent girl for whom he feels an uncontrollable desire. Julio, a man concerned with his family’s image and the wellbeing of his community, starts to organize his double life with cold calculation. Little by little, the situation starts to require quick thinking and increasingly compromising behaviour. A story of obsession and double morality, passion and social conflict.
