Searching for her missing boy, Rita puts at risk her job, her relationship with a long-distance lorry driver and her own safety, for violence and impunity hang over his disappearance. The crisis brings back her past: being sent from the family farm to keep house for others in the city as a girl, her prickly grandmother Carmelita, herself the lost daughter of Donana, and remorse over an accident that befell her brothers and sisters. Feeling uprooted once more, she travels back towards the countryside of her childhood, hoping both to hold herself together and to begin again.
