Synopsis

In northern Chile, Leonel Codoceo (58), a lonely security guard for a mining company, spends his free time unraveling the mysteries of extraterrestrial life. Confident in the existence of beings from another planet, Leonel organizes what will be the first UFO vigil open to the public in an emblematic place in the Atacama desert. At the same time, he prepares for the arrival of Sara (57), his ex-wife, who will arrive in Copiapó from Australia to marry him again. Under the starry cloak of the night sky and the vastness of the desert, Leonel will seek to make contact for the first time.
