Three lives take place in the same house over time. The director returns to what had been her childhood home to discover the stories that have inhabited it after her. Maria was born and lived there until her parents divorced. Rita arrived as a teenager, seeking an oasis of calm with her mother, who died unexpectedly a few years later. Now Mireia builds a place where her son can create his memories. A large tree observes them from the garden. Between autobiography and fiction, memories and fabulation are intertwined in this tale made of fragments of these three lives. While the inhabitants come and go, the house remains.
