In a fictional country where democracy is on the brink of collapse, a leftist politician is brutally murdered during a peaceful protest. The film follows the investigation of the crime, which unfolds into a web of corruption and complicity involving the government, armed forces, and police. As investigators delve deeper into the case, a network of lies and manipulation is revealed, highlighting a broken political system and an atmosphere of fear within society.

Through a frenetic style and striking editing, the narrative shifts between testimonies, archival footage, and scenes of unrest, showcasing public discontent and systematic repression. It is here that a group of activists and journalists emerges, determined to bring the truth to light, facing not only the machinery of the state but also their own fears. Tensions rise and paranoia grips the environment, as the atmosphere becomes increasingly dangerous.

This is not just a story about a murder, but a heartbreaking portrait of a society struggling for justice, truth, and freedom, in a context where power does whatever it takes to silence its opponents. With a focus on political critique, the film becomes a powerful indictment of the necessity to fight against injustice, a theme that resonates strongly even today.
