2024 | Color | 18:20

The hawk boy believes he has the power in his eyes to be enlightened. His transfiguration into a bird of prey leads him to fly over a burning territory in search of carrion for the pack. A kamikaze bird that has embarked on a journey to a savage place of no return. A representation of the state of overflowing violence brought from drug trafficking through the oneiric vision of a marginal teenager recruited by a cartel.
