SYNOPSIS

Diana has been forced to abandon her home and her own daughter for the fear of losing her own life to the hands of Luis, her husband, a violent military accused of the disappearance of many communist college students during the 80´s in Honduras. Despite the fear from which she has been a victim of during her marriage, and her wounds not even healed from the last beating she suffered, Diana decides to return to the “house of her horrors” in the dawn, with the purpose to sneak inside and steal her own daughter and escape with her far away. But in this place, the timing and her fear become her worst travel companions.
