Seoul
Yun Jae-seong has been back in Seoul barely two months when a small Paris museum's quietest painting lands on his desk — a mountain-and-moon ink wash by a nearly forgotten Korean painter, its ownership blank for thirty years. The case takes him from a dust-choked government archive to an old man's living room, where the tea goes cold and almost nothing gets said. Every document insists the story is simple. No one in that room believes it.
Mexico City, Mexico
Valentina comes to Roma Norte to film a restaurant everyone's talking about. A few blocks away, a family is being offered money to leave the apartment they've lived in for years. No one is forcing them. That's what everyone keeps saying.
Recife, PE
Mariana Salgado is sent from Recife into the interior of Pernambuco to find out what happened to an environmental inspector who vanished a week before he was due to testify. She has his field notebook, a set of coordinates that don't match any official map, and a fisherman who says almost nothing at all. The river holds more than anyone is willing to say out loud.
Mexico
On her first morning in an airport's lost-property room, Yerin finds a closed box no one has claimed, full of loose papers and nothing else. Anything nobody claims by the last day of the month leaves in one lot, and nobody sees it again. Somewhere, somebody is missing that box, and Yerin has until the end of the month to find them.
Coming Oct 30
Fortaleza, CE
Eight months of court reporting have taught Mariana Salgado what a clean file looks like. She is sent to Fortaleza to write about a neighborhood music stage, and the file she ends up reading there is immaculate: every notice served, every deadline met, every signature where it belongs. Two hundred families have left Vila Aurora. She arrives certain she already knows the shape of this story.
