A.D.A.M
In a not too distant future, in the Republic of Chile, the young detective Joyce Nova fulfills her functions in a thin line between law, morality and her particular vision of justice: after having suffered a horrendous crime firsthand and seeing the criminal be protected by the political power in office, her idealization of a just world has become dark and punctual. The closest thing to justice and criminal punishment, for Joyce, will be revenge.
