After high school graduation, all of them, including a sensitive and foolhardy handicapped boy, will leave for a trekking adventure in the mountains. Here, in the middle of this beautiful but also harsh and rugged nature, is where the boys will begin taking responsibility for themselves as well as for others, they will start making decisions and not bend in front of the difficulties they will encounter.
