    • Synopsis
    • Humberto Guamán has just been released from jail and lives by singing at wakes. His greatest desire is to be able to re-bond with his teenage daughter and raise her by his side. But custody is held by her grandparents, a couple of wealthy evangelical pastors who are not willing to leave her in the hands of what they consider to be a bad influence for his alcoholism. Thus, we attend Humberto´s fight. A fight in which he faces himself, and at the same time, a powerful evangelical church of which he was once a part.
