Set amidst the rebel wars (representing the Theban plagues) of contemporary Colombia, young Mayor Oedipus must mediate a peace deal between conflicting guerrilla groups and the army. It is raining when he leaves. His journey is interrupted when he gets into a shoot-out on a lonely bridge. Returning fire, Oedipus somehow escapes. As soon as he gets to town he hears that a prominent leader Laius was brutally slain. No one knows who shot him. Meanwhile, a blind coffin-maker Tiresias wanders town making dire prophecies concerning Oedipus's future. It is he who tells the mayor that Laius was murdered by a family member. Oedipus's fate is sealed when he gets involved with the beautiful and much older Jocasta, a woman who last had sex thirty years before with her husband Laius. She got pregnant and bore a son ... tragedy ensues.
