IN DEVELOPMENT
At 20, Mateo carries the weight of being seen as a murderer. Forced to leave his native Buenos Aires, he hides away in a family hotel on the shores of Lake Tota, Colombia, where he lives with his pregnant sister and tries to outrun a past that refuses to let him go. But the ghost of his late boyfriend and the arrival of a young man who looks just like him drag Mateo into a spiral of obsession, jealousy, and violent impulses. When a body washes up on the lake’s shore, suspicion inevitably falls on him. Yet what truly threatens to destroy him is not the shadow of guilt, but something far more merciless: love itself, which slips away and seems to wither the moment it reaches his hands.
