Guatemala City nowadays. Pablo, 40, is a "good man", a fervent religious, married and father of two wonderful children. But Pablo is unfortunately not spared by the lowest temptations. So when he falls in love with Francisco, his family and his church decide to help him "heal".
God may like the sinner, but he hates sin ...
