Now a young gentleman poised to attend university abroad, he learns of the existence of his long-lost maternal grandmother, who lives far away at the wild fringes of the Amazon. Fernando journeys to meet her, embarking on a dark, sensual odyssey that will take him through wildernesses unknown, as he seeks to uncover his mysterious blood-origins and confront the shadowy menace lurking in wait.
