Synopsis:

Inspired by a series of brutal, true life murders that shocked citizens of Buenos Aires at the turn of the 20th Century, director/screenwriter Jorge Algora's horrific thriller centers on a ten year old boy suspected of being a sadistic killer. The year is 1912, and the town of Buenos Aires is being held in the icy cold grip of fear. Ten year-old Mateo (Juan Ciancio) has been experiencing a disturbing series of extremely vivid visions that would seem to suggest that he witnessed the killings firsthand. When word gets out about Mateo's strange case of second sight, many of the locals begin to suspect that it is actually he who is committing these unspeakable acts. Meanwhile, as the body count continues to rise, Mateo's mother Estela (Maribel Verdú) enlists the aid of forensics specialist Dr. Soria (Chete Lera) in finding a rational explanation for the visions and helping the skeptical Police Inspector Petrie (Daniel Freire) locate the real killer in hopes of proving her son's innocence.

Buenos Aires, Argentina. 1912. A series of brutal child murders is extending throughout the city.

Mateo (Juan Ciancio), a 10 year-old boy, is hiding a secret: sometimes his mind takes him to dark places inside his memories, where he becomes the witness to the murders. When Mateo's secret is unveiled, he turns into the main murder suspect. With help from the police and Dr. Soria, his mother Stella (Maribel Verdú) tries to find a rational explanation for these visions and hopefully counteract the persistent skepticism of Inspector Petrie. Yet the murders continues and absolute chaos ends up taking over the situation.

Police try to hunt down a serial killer in 1912 Buenos Aires.
