Synopsis

Genaro lives in the countryside at the north coast of Colombia, and he was instructed to deliver, to the mothers and wives of members of the paramilitary, their corpses in wooden boxes with an envelope filled with money. Genaro does not feel the pain of death, he just delivers the boxes and walks away; without sorrow for people. His routine assignment left him without a heart, and he only cares about one thing: to find among the corpses one in particular. He will only rest until he finds it.
