In a morning like any other, Miriam is arrested and charged for human trafficking without any supporting evidence. The violence she suffered and to which she was exposed during her imprisonment left a deep void in her life. Adela works as a clown for a traveling circus. Ten years before, her life changed irreversibly and every night during her show she recalls her missing daughter, Monica. In a subjective and emotional journey, this is the story of two women, a portrait of the paralyzing power of fear and the impact of the violence afflicting Mexico. Berlin Film Festival 2016.
