Paula’s (Marta Lallana) transition to the adult world, during a summer spent by her grandmother and aunt at the Aragonese pueblo Ojos Negros. Paula finds her aunt as harsh and ruthless as the Aragonese landscape in which she is immersed and her grandmother is very old and sick. It seems to be a long lonely summer for the young girl, in contact with nature and the simplicity of life in a small village: but she immediately manages to make friends with Alicia (Alba Alcaine). At Alicia’s side, Paula tastes freedom for the first time and she will understand the sense of detachment, the temporariness and mutability of others’ feelings, the smell of death, the reality of family ties.
