A filmmaker investigates three cases of violence in Colombia, including a murder occurring near his mother’s home. The narrative follows his attempts to reconstruct these lost lives through archival research and the physical traces left in the landscape. This personal inquiry expands into a broader study of how a nation tracks its missing citizens, eventually mapping the overlap between individual family grief and official state processes of forensic recovery.

An hybrid feature film between documentary and fiction that approaches cinema as a ritual of symbolic transformation of death in the experience of 7 trans women. In this film, testimonies are combined with scenes that plunge into the surreal and the fantastic to narrate death from different angles, death related to transfeminicides, only in the year 2021, 36 trans women were murdered in Colombia; social death that seeks to annul in exclusion and silencing the life that makes it uncomfortable; and the multiple deaths that we experience in life, which speak of renunciations, forgetfulness, separations, changes.
