Synopsis

Aboard a cruise ship that coasts through Southern Latin America, a young sailor discovers a hallway that mysteriously leads to an apartment in Montevideo. Meanwhile, thousands of kilometres away, near a small rural village in Philippines, a group of peasants find an old abandoned storehouse in the expanse of a valley, assigning it supernatural powers.
