Set in a distant barrio, a strange skin disease throws a tight-knit village into turmoil. At the heart of their struggle stands an ancient tree believed to be miraculous. Locals flock to it, leaving clothes as tokens of faith and exchanging names with it in hopes of healing. As her mother battles the skin disease, a little girl named Sabel begins to realize the tree’s importance amidst the looming danger of its disappearance in a community desperate for healing.
