Anny and Ana live isolated in their cabin in the woods, victims of the violence and abuse of a drug-dealing father. The man killed the girls' mother when they were just children and repeatedly abused them, to the point of getting Anny pregnant, who gave birth to a deformed child, whom she named Manuel. After years of violence, the two decide to call the police and, after a bloody shootout and a escape, the father of the two is found and arrested. Anny, Ana and Manuel remain in the cabin, intimidated and at the mercy of events. While Ana decides to prostitute herself in the village to earn some money, Anny stays home with Manuel, until one day the men of Costello, a local boss to whom the girls' father owed money, set out to track down the two to settle the father's account.
