Amalia Thoma, the last descendant of her family, comes back to the deserted family home and finds herself answering to the voices of all its women. Their story stretches from the interwar years to the present day, told through shifting narrators and a collage of documents, from newspaper cuttings and transcribed tapes to official papers, diaries and postcards.
