A year after the end of his relationship, Marcelo returns to the place where he lived part of that relation. It is winter, the house is in a clearing. The grass is high and the garden is abandoned. Inside the house there are several boxes scattered around the room, old things in the corners. In the kitchen the fire burns gently on the iron stove. Near the house runs a river, where Marcelo takes refuge from the confusion of memories that accompanies him. The encounter with the past is the necessary fuse to move forward.

When 76-year-old Amélia realizes she has never had an orgasm in her life, she becomes determined to have one at any cost.

The daily crosswords-and-coffee ritual, when difficult to decipher, revives the memories of a woman's household, materialized in the spaces of her residence, in a disarrangement of times and places.
