Synopsis

Miguel is an aspiring young politician with a worldview shaped by his wealthy family. By a strange twist of fate, he ends up in the autopsy room, mistaken for an unidentified corpse, and unexpectedly reviving to the horror of the coroner and medical students. Upon escaping, he discovers that he doesn’t know who he is. He tries to recover his memories in an unknown city among people he doesn’t know, living through fragmentary images of his past and dreams he can’t understand. In this utter unawareness of himself, Miguel is thrown into the harsh reality of a world he had only seen from his limousine’s window. He manages to survive thanks to the altruism of outcasts, precisely the kind of people he once despised. Through his newly found friends –a trio of friendly corpse-hunters, a pious and promiscuous drag queen, and a bum who cooks delicious soups-, he experiences the warmth of true friendship, even when he is a stranger to himself. This new life transforms Miguel from a politician to a sensitive human being who struggles to find redemption –if possible.
