Julio Hernández Cordón - 2019

Mexico, sometime in the near future… Women are disappearing and a girl called Huck wears a mask to hide her gender. She helps her dad, a tormented addict, to take care of an abandoned baseball field where the narcos gather to play. The father tries to protect her as much as he can. With the help of her friends, a group of lost boys who have the power of camouflaging in the windy desert, Huck has to fight to overcome her reality and defeat the local capo.
