The place is surrounded by the “monte”, a huge humid and dark forest where his father works. Nino feels guilty for what he is going through and for having turned his family’s life upside down. His sister Natalia, aged 16, away from her friends and in her teens, has no mercy on him. Estela, his mother, wants to put Nino “back on the right track” and organizes his Confirmation in the local church. In this rural and superstitious environment, Nino hears about the legend of a mysterious creature called the Almamula, which haunts the “monte” and takes with it anyone who has committed sexually reprehensible acts. The Priest’s sermons show Nino that his sexuality is not acceptable to the eyes of God. The pressure of the approaching Confirmation ceremony weighs on him as his fascination for the Almamula, who he thinks would accept his sins, grows. Little by little, Nino begins to pray to the Almamula, seeing it as a way of “salvation”, and goes in search of the creature, to be taken by it.
