Synopsis
This film is divided into three parts or chapters of a great story. The first narrator tells the story of an old woman who lives in the mountains, a victim of poverty and labor exploitation in rural areas, where she loses a son. Next, a young woman who lives with her partner in an apartment full of boxes takes over and narrates a move to study at a dance school. And, finally, the latter is replaced by a middle-aged teacher who gets on stage telling the viewer about her happy time at university during the 1980s. A totally different life from the one her parents lived.
