Barbara is a teenager overwhelmed by her parents' relationship, by the contradictions between her desires and the society she lives in, by love, heartbreak, and misunderstandings. One early morning, she drives 100 kilometers back from a party in Villa Mercedes with her boyfriend Federico, two friends, and a lot of alcohol. Amidst death, helplessness, and incomprehension, her 80-year-old grandmother Olga's story appears at the perfect moment, with the precise wisdom and understanding of a family history of Italian immigrants that repeats itself through generations; with the perfect magic and timing, and a bridge between life and death: the perfect beauty to drain so much pain.
