The movie revolves around the central character, Francisco Black, known as "Paco" (Tomás Fonzi), a college student who becomes entangled in the world of cocaine paste, a byproduct of cocaine commonly referred to as "paco." The son of a senator, Francisco falls in love with a cleaning worker. He delves into the dark underbelly of Buenos Aires in pursuit of his girlfriend, only to discover that she has committed suicide after succumbing to prostitution in exchange for drugs.
Consumed by a desire for vengeance, Francisco resorts to planting a bomb in the drug manufacturing facility, killing several innocent individuals. Accused of terrorism-related charges, his mother employs her connections to try to clear his name. However, she ultimately has no choice but to confine him to a detox clinic, where Francisco encounters a group of lost souls.[1]
