Emilio Vargas, a 57-year-old Spanish career diplomat who has spent decades negotiating peace agreements he privately doubts, is posted to an emergency UN summit on resource warfare in the DRC. His ex-wife, Lucía — now a celebrated conflict photographer — arrives uninvited to document the proceedings. Into their orbits steps Kofi Mensah, a 34-year-old Congolese-British human rights attorney who holds critical testimony that could derail Emilio's life's work. Over four intense days, old wounds reopen, moral lines dissolve, and a choice must be made between legacy and truth. Shot in Geneva, Brussels, and Kinshasa.
