On January 29, 1986, prominent Chilean journalist Jeremías Gallardo covers the last death sentence in the country, which was carried out in the prison of Valparaiso. That same day, his wife is giving birth to their first child at a clinic in the capital. Gallardo's return to Santiago becomes an inner journey in which he will relive moments from his dark past, linked to the intelligence services of that time. The film is structured in fragmentary flashbacks and reconstructs Gallardo's character and personality.
