- Valentina is 8 years old and she can't stop worrying about her mother, Dolores, who has to decide if they should return to her abusive husband or not.
  They both ran away and took refuge in a humble house in the city's outskirts.
  In the middle of a draught due to constant ash fall and an incoming indigenous uprising, Valentina meets Rosa, an indigenous girl who has a special sensitivity for the nature around her in this remote place.
  Together, they create an intimate, simple world, filled with fantasy where pain of decisions becomes a healing bond for the wounds of a broken family.
