Set against the backdrop of modern Santiago, three young friends—Felipe, Iquela, and Paloma—embark on a poignant journey after the mysterious loss of Paloma's mother's body. Their adventure, fueled by pisco, takes them up the cordillera as they grapple with the enduring trauma of Chile's dictatorship and its impact on their lives. The narrative explores themes of friendship, memory, and the intergenerational effects of historical pain, earning a place on the longlist for the 2019 Man Booker International Prize.
