Being different is no easy task. And when the difference is so visible, like albinism, or so burdensome, like a heart condition, things get harder. Albino introvert Tito must travel from Panama to Costa Rica to pick up his sick father. Not having spoken to his father in years, their reunion is less than desired. César has always lived on his own terms and would rather deal with his weakness alone. And Tito would rather not deal with anyone. So, the ride back to Panama is a bit heated. They might kill each other but not without first confronting their anxieties and the reasons for the distance kept between them for so long

After five years in the shadows of a prison cell, 65-year-old Marino returns to the sweltering streets of Panama City to settle a final, spiritual debt with the Black Christ of Portobelo. A weary jeweler by trade and a pimp by circumstance, Marino navigates a fragmented reality alongside his "found family": Cassandra, a sex worker under his protection, and Barba, a young gang member and boxer he mentored behind bars.

The dream of Panama is to qualify for the World Cup. Jamel, a big fan of the national team, is depressed after a 4-0 loss to the United States. When making a promise to the Black Christ of Portobelo, Jamel goes towards Russia. On his arrival, he meets a compatriot who helps him in the adaptation of the new culture and thus fulfills the promise made to the saint.
