A political thriller about child trafficking. Danger arises in Abril’s life (Diana Lamas), an apathetic and absent-minded accountant, after her cherished uncle Ángel (Mario Pasik) and her best friend from adolescence Guille (Carlos Portaluppi) turn up on New Year’s Eve. Both these presences turn out to be closely related to a judicial investigation into the dark secrets of Abril’s family, leading her up to the realization that her personal experience is deeply intertwined with politics. The struggle between justice and power will show that child trafficking is an omnipotent international business packed with accomplices.

How sad is this?
Absolutely Brilliant!
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
