Mar¡a is a heroine addict and
frustrated rock singer whose boyfriend died from a drug overdose.
Deeply grieving, she loses all hope until one day she meets Rafa, a
younger man with a clearer mind. Rafa convinces Mar¡a to steal a
few grams of heroine but it actually turns out to be nearly nine
kilos. The heroine belongs to Velasco, an unscrupulous man
who is in with the police. Rafa and Maria flee, setting out on a
one-way trip to a place where life will give them their last
chance.
