    • Synopsis
    • "There´ll be a flash in the village, a really mighty , mighty one and everything will change…", Isa uses a cassette recorder to record messages to herself for when she disappears or loses her memory.
      Cita feels trapped in a marriage in a house full of saints and virgins. María returns to the town where she was born to face her loneliness. The women of a small rural town, suspended in time and whipped by depopulation, live between the apathy of their daily day where nothing extraordinary happens and a deep desire for liberating experiences that makes them rediscover the place where they believe they were happy or dreamed of being happy.
