Spoilers ahead
In a remote Patagonian forest, a grieving taxidermist named Esteban Espinosa accepts a hunting trip with his friend Sontag after his wife leaves him. They stay in a cabin owned by Dietrich, run by his much younger wife, Diana, and her brother Julio. Diana, Dolores Fonzi, lends Espinosa a rifle, and the immediate tension of a man-seeking solace amid loss forms the backdrop for the gathering storm. During a hunt, Sontag aims for a deer but is startled and flees when Espinosa accidentally steps on a branch. Sontag rightfully suspects Espinosa did it on purpose and returns to the cabin, where the mood grows heavier with every passing moment.
