Late one night, a small Xolo named Skippy wanders his home in search of food and his missing owner, Maria. His quiet routine is interrupted when he discovers her lying motionless on the couch, sending him into confusion and distress.

Moments later, the front door creaks open and a mysterious presence enters—Xolotl, the Aztec god of death. As Skippy begins to understand why he has come, fear turns into determination. Refusing to let go of the bond they share, Skippy leads Xolotl through the home, revealing the small, meaningful ways Maria shaped his world.

What unfolds is an intimate journey through memory, love, and devotion, as Skippy holds onto the moments that mattered most, even as forces beyond his control begin to close in.
