Hernán Espinoza from Mexico walks Japan’s Shikoku pilgrimage path to open his heart. A Buddhist nun and others test his intentions. When lured to a shortcut, dark demons from Hernán's past leave him lost. Is he alive or dead, a man or a woman, a saint or a sinner, in Japan or not? In search of light, Hernán continues to the end of the circular Shikoku path, which is also the beginning.

Lucía Fuentes is both triggered and inspired by the truth-tellers of the global #MeToo reckoning and by the families of 43 boys disappeared in Mexico.
