Synopsis

Santa, a rural peasant girl kneels by a lake in the wilderness and swallows one of the fish swimming under her reflection. She awakens transformed. She returns home to fulfill an agreement: the girl is to end her mother’s life and then carry her across the desert toward heaven, a place they believe is as physically real
as any other.
Through her journey, Santa encounters a priest and a group of female wrestlers who help guide her on her way. Also on that path is, initially, her nemesis: a gruff policeman who arrests Santa but then comes to suspect that she has miraculous powers and that a fish may live inside her - or is this really just a figment of the girl’s fantasies? He soon sees that to achieve his own salvation he must join Santa on her quest into the next
world beyond the horizon.
