A rare disease that strikes one in ten of thousands of people, inevitably leading them to commit suicide as a teenager, the genetic trap, "Morte"; an orphanage full of secrets and restlessness, Doceo; and a boy sent to this institution, Sasha. Sasha lived his days in solitude, carrying hatred for the adults, until one day, in front of him, a beautiful young woman named Manon appears. As he approaches her, he begins to suspect that Manon's counselor, Doudou, a gruesome godfather, would be the cause of her injuries. And in order to save her, Sasha makes a big decision. Yet an amazing truth was hidden behind everything. In this scenario of the orphanage, where they meet, the unwanted ["Morte"], instigator of inevitable suicide, is lurking. A story about pure ties, in despair. Does a miracle exist in this world?
