About

In 1982 northern Chile, eleven-year-old Lidia tries to learn whether a deadly illness is really spread by a glance, as her queer family faces blame.

In 1982, eleven-year-old Lidia lives with her queer family in a desert mining town in northern Chile. Tamara Cortés plays Lidia, with Matías Catalán as Flamenco and Paula Dinamarca as Boa. When an unknown and deadly disease starts to spread, the town's residents grow suspicious. A legend takes hold: a look between two men who fall in love can pass it on. As people blame Lidia's family and measures against the epidemic grow harsher, Lidia sets out to discover whether the myth is true.
