She experiences the transformations of her body as something monstrous, she is a shy young woman who suffers abuse, isolation and discrimination in school. Her family and the community do not tolerate her because of her own behavior, a man, these attitudes will be reason for her classmates, led by Aquiles, to humiliate her physically and psychologically.

The story told in Souls in Torment begins with a well-known urban legend (a characteristic that one of the characters in the film emphasizes). Mélinton (Edgar Palomino), a young truck driver, picks up a woman on the highway who appears in the middle of the night and asks him to take her to a nearby town. He takes her and agrees to meet her the next day, later discovering that the woman in question had died a year earlier, which triggers a series of events marked by the horror of the supernatural experience.

After terrorism striked, the youth of Huamanga turned to street gangs, violence and alcohol.
