Synopsis
Ana Casasola, a journalist in Costa Rica, investigates the terrorist attack in which her father died forty years ago. The recognition of a possible witness takes her on a journey to the site where the events took place. At the river, near the border with Nicaragua, Ana recognizes in this mysterious man something more familiar and intimate than just a witness.
This synopsis sets up a compelling narrative that blends personal history with investigative journalism. Ana’s quest to uncover the truth about her father’s death leads her to an unexpected encounter that promises to be more significant than she initially thought. The border setting adds an element of tension and possibly political intrigue to the story.
The revelation that the man Ana meets is more than just a witness suggests a twist in the plot. It hints at hidden family connections or long-buried secrets that could dramatically alter Ana’s understanding of her past and her father’s death.
