Plot Summary

Estrella lives a miserable life. Frustrated by an unfulfilling existence, she rots away in her home. She doesn’t feel like a good or productive artist, has no friends, her family doesn’t accept her as she is, she’s in love with a boy she doesn’t dare show her feelings to, and she lives reclusively in a cumbersome wheelchair. Her whole world is turned upside down when she begins to have dreams that smell blood—dreams where she is free and a mysterious figure promises her everything she could ever want and more, in exchange for one pitiful price: her humanity. From that moment on, these visions—somewhere between dream and nightmare—begin to shape Estrella’s life. She tries to resist, but sooner or later, she will have to make a decision.
