When Chicano studies professor Alejandro Serna misses his flight to his hometown of Léon, Mexico, he finds himself stranded alone in Tijuana on New Year’s Eve. On a walk through the town, he runs into one of his former students, Ana, who invites him to spend the night in the company of her friends. The celebration leads to a flood of emotions for Serna, some turbulent, as he comes to term with how chance and luck can shape his future.
