Synopsis

Set in 1955 during Stroessner's dictatorship in San Bernardino, Paraguay, a town founded by German settlers. The villagers live far away from the world's reality. After his father died, Justin, a boy 11 years old starts working as a postman while he assists to a German school. Unaware of it, he gets involved in the relationship between his German teacher and a misterious character, an ex Nazi soldier who was taking refuge in the country. A crime will stir awaking them from their slumber, but although, nothing will change, Justino will glimpse a world full of encouraging expectations.
