If We Don't Burn, How Do We Light Up The Night?

During a sweltering summer in Costa Rica in the early 2000s, Laura, a preteen soccer fan, must move to a conservative mountain town where a femicide has just occurred. There she will meet Daniela, 16 years old, the victim's best friend, who will guide her in the new environment: soccer games, motorcycle getaways, baths in the river. Together, they will manage to navigate the adversities of an environment that sexualizes their bodies in the midst of Laura's heat and sexual awakening.
