An LGBTQ+ western that intertwines magical realism with family, love, and death.

In the early '80s, in the Chilean desert, eleven-year-old Lidia grows up in a loving queer family pushed on the edge of an unwelcoming dusty mining town. They are blamed for a mysterious illness that is starting to spread – said to be passed through a single gaze, when one man falls in love with another. In this modern western, Lidia leads a quest for vengeance, facing violence, fear and hatred, where family is her only refuge and love might be the real danger.

The film won an award in the Cannes Film Festival’s Un Certain Regard programme, several other festival recognitions, and was selected to represent Chile in the Best International Feature Film category at the Oscars.
