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 stories of a Panamanian officer who feels betrayed by his superiors, of a young man from the neighborhood trying to prevent his friends from going out to fight, of a fisherman going through a thousand adventures trying to bury his compadre, of an imprisoned American businessman for conspiring as a CIA agent against the dictatorship and an alcoholic prostitute who cannot escape her past ... all in the middle of the Christmas preparations, just as the US invasion of Panama begins.

The death of a school friend forces Toño to face the ghosts of his past while at the renowned "St. Vierja Academy," one of Panama's most exclusive catholic schools for boys during the 1970s.
