Summary

Julia and Sofia are two sisters who, due to their father's illness, are forced by their mother to go to the country, with their aunt Cristina and two children they do not know. Both girls feel alien to this grandiloquent place as well as to these relatives with whom they seem to have nothing in common. The stillness of the countryside, the dead times of summer and a house that seems frozen in time are opposed to the imminent collapse of the girls, who intuit that those days are only an illusion.
