Bajo la Piel plot
A shy, insecure and peace-loving police officer named Percy Corso is assigned to the Palle police station in a small Peruvian village of the same name. Palle was once the homeland of the Moches, the violent but beautiful people of the pre-Inca period. When a series of crimes are committed in the Moche tradition - young people with slit throats, bulging eyes and decapitated bodies - Percy Corso is put in charge of the investigation, along with a Spanish pathologist and a professor specializing in Moche culture. . The increasingly close relationship between the pathologist and Percy Corso leads the policeman to fiery passions and deep urges that he cannot control.
