In a dystopian future where a virus has made animal meat inedible, society resorts to breeding humans for consumption. The story follows Marcos, who works at a processing plant and grapples with the moral implications of his job. As he navigates this grim reality, he receives a live human as a gift, which forces him to confront his own humanity and the ethical boundaries of survival. The narrative explores themes of dehumanization, complicity, and the thin veneer of civilization in a world where the line between human and commodity is disturbingly blurred.
