Plot

Bathed in the sun-kissed glow of Andalusia, Spain, we find Tano, a hardened lieutenant laboring under the frail and dementia-riddled Manuel, a man who once ruled the city's underbelly. In the booming 90s, Manuel made his fortune through illicit nightclubs, drug trading, and a thriving real estate venture. As his strength wanes, he entrusts his empire to the faithful Tano, bypassing his own son, Ángel, whom he deems unworthy. Assisted by his motley crew of Paul, Roberto, McCoy, and Eduardo, Tano navigates the perilous underworld, greasing the palms of politicians and law enforcement to maintain a smooth operation. However, their world begins to crumble; profits plummet, a lethal new drug infiltrates the city, and their Moroccan drug shipment is stolen by a mysterious masked gang. In the aftermath, the merciless Nolasco murders Eduardo, thrusting a ticking clock onto Tano's shoulders: retrieve the lost shipment within a week or face a similar fate. As Tano delves deeper, visiting the gypsy camp of Sabio and Chule, he uncovers shocking secrets and witnesses firsthand the devastation caused by the new drug. After a second encounter with the notorious masked gang, tragedy strikes: one of the wounded thieves is revealed to be Antonio from the gypsy camp. As Antonio's life hangs in the balance, alliances shift, revealing Nolasco and Ángel's sinister partnership aiming to force Manuel to accept the new drug and revive their dwindling enterprise. Yet, their ruthless ambition leads to Antonio and his pregnant girlfriend Susi's gruesome demise, ensuring the silence of the remaining camp members. Tano, Paul, and McCoy, tipped off about the gypsy link to the thefts, return to the camp. They find a terrified Aitana, who under duress, unravels the truth behind the masked gang. Forced to protect Aitana, Tano simultaneously rallies his crew to hunt down Trujillo, Nolasco, Ángel, and the elusive drug shipment. This sets the stage for a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, where trust is scarce, danger is ever-present, and violence is the only currency for survival. In this scorched world, the dead man who cannot live begins to understand that survival comes at the cost of the soul.
