Pepa, the film’s author, meets their cousin David after many years lying in hospital where his legs were amputated. Pepa’s older Brother sleeps in a concrete shed in the middle of a housing development where they grew up. He's lived on the street for over a decade. Their cousin Marco, David’s brother, houses in a garage and makes do collecting electronic waste. Pepa was unable to save their father but is resolved to save their Brother and cousins. The film follows three years in the lives of four relatives, contrasting a common childhood with a present fundamentally at odds. A mosaic-structured documentary, it charts the story of a quest for balance between love and hate, care and self-destruction, exploring the roots of addiction and the possibility of breaking with generational trauma.
