Set against the 2008 financial crisis in Spain, the film centers a young boy’s solo journey into the unknown, looking for answers after witnessing his grandfather on his deathbed. Beyond the abandoned buildings and state of decay that surround his grandparents’ rural home, he finds a heightened sense of life in the natural world, revealing the subtle magic of the weeds, insects, and lizards that cross his path.

Abhinav feels trapped by his tight-knit Hindu community in Madrid, but craves to go out raving with his friends in search of a different kind of ecstasy. When his guru announces a visit to bless his devotees on the same night as the most important party of the year, a strange series of events augurs the collision between his two worlds.
