Julius is an upper-class boy in Lima in the 1940s. He lives in a palace with his aristocratic family and extensive servants. As the years go by, Julius will gradually lose his innocence, discovering and never understanding an adult world full of inequalities and injustices.

秘鲁, 马泰奥一家搬入郊区的新家, 不幸引发了超自然事件, 事情变得越来越暴力与令人不安, 直到驱魔神父的伸手援助, 事态并没有得到制止。

In a dystopian city (that seems to be Lima), Teo, a twelve year old boy, works with his father Luis on a mysterious machine that seeks to generate a deluge in a city where it does not rain. Luis, obsessed with making the machine work, puts the machine at risk in the face of constant embargoes and threats from the authorities. Teo, seeking to help his father, gets involved with a gang of young spies, actually bringing turmoil to the relationship with Luis. In a film with no certain time or context, between neo-noir and sci-fi, debutant V. Checa creates a whole universe with austere resources but bright (and dark) ideas. From the intrepid Teo’s point of view, the ghost city seems like a mystery fight between body sensation and human feelings versus obsession for machines, a really contemporary dystopia.
