Most of the residents of a Mexican village, on the border with the US, have left the small village in search of a better future across the border. Those who stayed have built a tourist center that offers an "escape game" that simulates the illegal immigration route into the US. During this, the tourists embark on a night journey towards the border, including an encounter with local criminal groups, immigration police officers, heat, and thirst. The story ranges from an almost fictional plot, actions that are, to a certain extent, cynical, and heartfelt characters.
