This film is centered around Vero, an Argentinean bourgeois woman, and how her life slowly twists out of control after she may or may not have struck and killed a dark-skinned servant's child with her car. As Vero is driving, she is distracted by her cell phone and, as she looks down to answer it, her car hits something. She peers in the rear-view mirror, collects herself, and drives away. We do not see what she has run over; a non-point-of-view shot of Vero driving away from the scene shows there is indeed a body, but it is unclear whether it is an animal or a person.
