For the first time Florencia (17) will have to take care of her older brother, who is in a vegetative state, on her own. Trying to survive with limited means and with no one assisting them, she becomes obsessed with a comic called Las Plantas, which tells the story of plant souls invading human bodies during the full moon. At the same time, Florencia starts to explore her sexuality, meeting strangers through the Internet.
