Sinopsis
In the midst of a digital, industrialized, automated and confusing world, where productivity rules, Lucas, a teenager who works in a fast food restaurant, discovers the world through his pinhole camera, learns about resistance through amateur poetry, local myths and stories that bring him closer to the people of his community to generate empathy together, creating a new meaning from the reality in which these people are immortalized.
