Within the walls of the Grave, the orphanage where Nica grew up, a legend has always been told: that of the maker of tears, a mysterious craftsman, guilty of crafting all the fears and anxieties that inhabit the hearts of men. But at seventeen years old, the time has come for Nica to leave fairy tales behind. Her biggest dream is about to come true. Mr and Mrs Milligan have started the adoption process and are ready to give her the family she has always wanted. In her new home, however, Nica is not alone. Along with her, Rigel, a restless and mysterious orphan, the last person in the world Nica would want as an adoptive brother, is also taken from the Grave. Rigel is intelligent, smart, plays the piano like an enchanting demon and has a beauty that can enchant, but his angelic appearance conceals a dark nature. Even though Nica and Rigel are united by a common past of pain and hardship, living together seems impossible, but kindness and anger are two different ways of fighting pain to stay alive and to conceal the emotions that devastate their hearts, becoming for each other that tears-maker of legend. To the maker of tears you cannot lie: and they will have to find the courage to accept that desperate force that attract them towards each other called love.

导演克里斯托夫·施瓦茨身无分文，幸运的是，他接到了国家电视台的拍摄邀约。但施瓦茨真的想拍摄自己作为气候行动主义者的自我实验吗？他是否更愿意将这个长期计划转变为一场对资本主义的讽刺，并偷偷用拍片的预算购买他梦寐以求的周末小屋？这是一部自嘲意味浓厚的影片，轻松幽默地揭示了人们在解决问题的同时，往往也在制造出更大的新问题。
