It's the summer of 1999 when the two children of wealthy video game executive Jose Francisco Vivar, Alicia and Bruno, go missing in the beach town of Matanza. Long after their disappearance, the people of Matanza and the adjacent town of Navidad consistently report sightings of Bruno-on the beach, in bars, gambling-while reports on Alicia, however, are next to none. And every clue keeps circling back to a man named Boris Real. At least that's how the story, or one of many stories, rather, goes.
