Elo (30), a Black woman with androgynous features, returns to Correcaminos, the hamlet where she was born, to attend her grandmother’s funeral. There, she discovers a body covered in peculiar terracotta-colored mud. The body belongs to Aisha, a 30-year-old African migrant who miraculously comes back to life, consumed by grief over the loss of her daughter in a shipwreck. As Aisha and Elo grow to know each other, the power of the jungle and the memory of the sea reveal the unbreakable bond that intertwines their stories.
