Teresa changes her holiday plans to help her mother, who has had a minor accident. Mother and daughter will spend a stifling summer together, unable to agree on even the most trivial things. However, their forced coexistence will bring to the surface unexpected issues, bringing Teresa to experience revealing moments with her mother. Considered one of the greatest talents in Spanish cinema today, Celia Rico brings us with her second feature film a honest and profound portrait of the relationship between a mother and a daughter in its small gestures. The intense but subtle performances by Adriana Ozores and María Vázquez as mother and daughter are simply flawless.
