“Sin Querer” is a heartfelt drama that explores unexpected love and personal growth. It follows two individuals from different backgrounds who form a deep connection despite their differences.
It is summer in the remote village of San Lorenzo. A young engineer from the city arrives at the same time migrating flamingos reach what seems like the end of the world.

But the engineer’s presence upsets the rigid sense of order in the village and after he leaves, things only appear to have remained the same.
