The story of Sophia - a young woman, lost and struggling in her own world. Vulnerable to her physical well being, and to the powers of others who have the means to control and consume. And her mother, Alexandria. Is she friend or foe? Does she truly believe Sophia is falling victim to end stage leukemia, or something more devastating in nature?Both overcome by a force more powerful than themselves combined. The first of a series, Embrace of Mateo's Blood introduces the audience to a tangled web of suspicion, sex and destruction only to leave the viewer wondering where the next film will take Mateo in his pursuit for the next source of nourishment. His only remaining source of survival.
