Forensic cleaner Eusebio travels across the semi-deserted city of Lima, Peru, after a deadly outbreak of a global plague, sterilising areas where the latest victims have died. When he becomes responsible for a traumatised eight-year-old boy, his isolated existence is gradually transformed through a growing sense of compassion and tenderness.

Saba’s debut feature film won the New Director’s Award at the prestigious San Sebastian International Film Festival in 2012 and was Peru’s submission for the Academy Awards Foreign Language Category 2014.
