A young man's father, close to death, reveals to his son the true story of his grandfather's death, or at least the truth as he knows it. The mean old gaucho was murdered by some fellow villagers in Garopaba, a sleepy town on the Atlantic now famous for its surfing and fishing. It was almost an execution, vigilante style. Or so the story goes.

A young man wakes up at dawn to drive to the Andes, to climb the Cerro Bonete - a mountain untouched by ice axes and climbers, one of the planet's final mountains to be conquered - as an act of heroic bravado - or foolishness. But instead he finds himself dragged by the undertow of memory to Esplanada, the neighborhood he grew up in, to the brotherhood of his old friends, and to the clearing in the woods where he witnessed an act that has run like a scar through the rest of his life.

Em meio a uma onda de calor devastadora e a uma greve de ônibus que paralisa a cidade, três amigos se reencontram em Porto Alegre. No final dos anos 1990, eles haviam incendiado a internet com o Orangotango, um fanzine digital que se tornou cultuado em todo o Brasil. Agora, quase duas décadas depois, a morte do quarto integrante do grupo vai reaproximar Aurora, cientista e pesquisadora vivendo uma pequena guerra acadêmica, Antero, artista de vanguarda convertido em publicitário, e Emiliano, jornalista que tem uma difícil tarefa pela frente.

The world had been theirs in the late '90s: They were the young provocateurs behind a countercultural scene, digital bohemians creating a new future. But 15 years later, Duke, the leader and undisputed genius of their group, has been murdered, and the three remaining members of their circle reunite to piece together what became of their lives and how they fell so short of their expectations. Now in their 30s, Aurora, Antero, and Emiliano have succumbed to the pressures of adulthood, the exigencies of carving out a life in a country that is fraying at the seams.
