Corruption and mismanagement has turned Venezuela into a failed state. Over six million people have fled in recent years. Around one million children were left behind by their parents. This remarkable film follows two single mothers and their children over several months as they do what it takes to survive.

Carolina had to send her daughter to a children’s home to protect her against the ubiquitous violence. In the past, Kiara earned a living as a prostitute and by selling drugs. Now she anxiously follows the actions of her oldest son, who has joined a local gang.
