In the heat of Barcelona beats the pulse of a new underclass. Once the bright future of Venezuela, it disappeared after the country's surreal collapse. From savagery they emerge and take flight on new shores: a cohort of friends bristling with life, there before the world but under its radar. Escaping hunger and worse in Caracas, they pedal the streets as fast-food delivery 'riders', prostitutes and dealers, scratching their living at speed through the streets of a new city whose punishing hills and dark alleys they navigate at risk, visible in fleeting moments at a doorstep, on a corner, or weaving through dense traffic. Savages to some they become hypnotic fireflies here, discovering identity, surviving insult, questioning gender, finding love, trying to forget, or is it to remember, but alive and supporting each other through stories of fear, horror, laughter and hope.
