Against the backdrop of the 1970s meat ban in Uruguay, José, a Galician immigrant, and his daughter Rosita establish a clandestine slaughterhouse to survive. As the operation expands into a citywide black market, their ambitions collide with corrupt authorities, rival butchers and the shifting political landscape, pushing the family toward dangerous alliances and violent consequences.
