Héctor, a villager from the south of Chile disconnected from his family, avoids assisting Rosa, his mother who lies prostrate, leaving her in the care of her sister Elena who neglects her own existence because she has to take care of her. From her bed Rosa watches as time passes and her daughter is consumed by her. Rosa will subtly concoct a plan, which will change the roles of the house forever.

About the hermit of Las Chilcas, it is said that he came here about 50 years ago to live under a bridge in the most dangerous point of the Panamericana highway, close to the location of Llay-Llay, a place marked by multiple deaths that the inhabitants have learn to live and die along with. This documentary could be the rescue of different stories or maybe it is a journey along the multiple paths of the oral tradition. The voices speak us about the past, present and future, although it seems that they talk about a dead man whose lonely life is still staggering in the diffuse remembrances of a myth.
