Juan, devastated by the unclear circumstances surrounding the death of his wife, Rosario, travels by road across Argentina with his six-year-old son, Gaspar, amidst the military junta. Their destination is Rosario's family home. There, they are called to confront the Order, a powerful, mystical organization that seeks immortality through horrific rituals.

The origins of the Order, led by the powerful Mothers and Bradford families, date back centuries, when the knowledge of Darkness reached England from the heart of Africa and then spread to Argentina. Gaspar is called to become a medium and serve the dark purposes of the Order. Juan then makes the dangerous decision to escape at all costs from the horror and do everything to protect his child from it.
